This first started about a month ago now when DH complained of a sore toe. I moisturise his legs every day because he has a condition called chronic venous insufficiency. I didn't notice anything and it was only when he saw his podiatrist a fortnight ago he told him he had an ulcer under the second toe. Saw GP had antibiotics for a week and referral to the local diabetic foot ulcer clinic. Also seen at the diabetic clinic yesterday where they confirmed he probably had osteomyelitis of the bone, gave us a prescription for antibiotics and will be seen again at the end of October. Meanwhile we will be attending a local clinic every week for change of dressing.
Have been told he could lose his toe which is rather scary. He has mobility issues and his walking is poor. The wound is dressed, he's wearing his compression socks. I did ask how much he could walk but they were a bit vague.
Has anyone else had this. I think recovery time is quite long.

Teaching myself piano from scratch at 65- any advice.
