Are you diabetic?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this open wound. It looks visibly infected and clearly requires antibiotics and thorough wound care. I will suggest that you see a doctor to get this addressed right away. If you are not known to be diabetic, please get tested as this can complicate healing and makes treatment options different as well.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
