[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Your symptoms are suggestive of cellulitis which might be going into gangrenous stage. Such infections are caused by anaerobic organisms like clostridia which needs to be treated immediately. I suggest you get in touch with a surgeon and get the foot examined and take immediate therapy. Sugar levels have to maintained normal and very strict diet control has to be followed. If foul smelling discharge and increasing pain are seen you need to see your doctor immediately. Thanks.
