How Can A Wound On The Right Foot Be Treated?

I am dealing with a chronic wound on the bottom of my right foot. I am being treated by a Wound Clinic. The wound will not heal. We have worked over a year now to get the wound to close. The doctors want another MRI and compression testing of the entire leg again. I had this done in April as well. What are my options if it is osteo myelitis and just will not heal?
