1. if nothing is giving relief probably infection has occurred in the ulcer, firstly make a Surgical appointment who will go for necessary examination and tests for any presence of Abscess, any spreading infection [cellulitis], or some bone infection or compromised blood circulation, and will check for blood sugar level and/or other immuno compromised state and then will prescribe medicine according to the tests conducted and examination done.

2. avoid walking barefoot, wash the feet daily, dry them, inspect them & then sprinkle lots of talcum powder

3. Don't wait to treat a foot or skin problem. Follow your doctor's guidelines.
