I just got diagnosed with a foot ulcer?

Question

i had a blister from football and didnt treat it good. I was afraid to tell anyone that it was looking bad ecause i didnt want to sit out of football. I learned that it was a doumb mistake. Can anyone help me on what i should do. and ive already gone to the doctors and got antibiotics. my main problem is i cant take time off of football so no rest for the weak.

Answer 1

Your coach isn't going to let you play with a foot like that.  You would be making a BIG mistake to play.  The ulcer could become much worse if you don't follow the Dr.'s orders.  I would level with your coach, and see what he wants you to do.  Good luck.

Answer 2

Is it worth losing your foot. You're already on antibiotics. If the wound gets severly infected, you could become septic, and the poison would go through your whole body and die. This happens a lot with diabetics,, who have a hard time healing. Amputations happen all the time.

Like the 1st guy said, tell your coach. You cannot play with an infected foot.

Hey, I love football, but it is not worth losing a limb over it.
