A working woman and she has type 2 diabetes. her toe bump with a black dot in it. is there any thing dangerous & what could be the reasons ?

Maybe: Maybe not. You would want to make sure the black dot is just a bruise and not gangrene. It's likely the former but since gangrene has obvious seriousness related it should be checked out.
