Should Foot Blistering With Skin Peeling Need Medical Attention Immediately?
I have bilateral foot neuropathy. Had an infection set in to my right big toe necessitating it s amputation last May. I have been walking great ever since, even took a trip to Europe this Summer with no issues. Today I went out for a walk (approx 2.5 miles) and when I returned home found that I had blistered the ball of my right foot pretty severely - skin has gone ahead and sloughed off inside my sock and shoe. Should I seek medical attention right away or stay off of it and wrap it myself for a couple of days to see how it heals?
