I hope you are still ok. I’ll just share a few things. As a person with Type 1 diabetes, I only go barefoot in shower or tub. Then I’m right back into my shoes, sandals, etc. Perhaps overly cautious, but I’m seen some things with others that I’d like to avoid.

I did develop a horrible infection in my finger a few years ago. Started out as hangnail that got an antibiotic resistant bacteria in it! Three surgeries later I was referred by hand specialist to infectious disease doctor. Thankfully it healed and no recurring issues.

I found a podiatrist office that offers pedicures. I intend to use them soon. Also, I found a traveling pedicurist who comes to the home and gives excellent professional pedicures. My parents weren’t mobile enough to go out and she came to them. It was rather expensive, but a treat they deserved.
