Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM.
Such type of blisters are common in diabetic patients.
Following is advisable:
1. To take antibiotics like Augmentin.
2. To apply Mupirocin ointment locally.
3. Strict control of blood sugar.
In case it spreads further you should see a specialist immediately as it might even turn into cellulitis.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
