Culture wound: Your description is not very helpful. also you don’t provide the medications you were on and the type of treatment you had. I would start by taking a culture. I would soak the foot in acidic acid water which is 2 tablespoons of vinegar for every quarter water until culture results have returned You could be dealing with a fungus or another type of infection. Culture and sensitivity test
