I've had what looks like a blood blister on my right foot and as I'm diabetic I was wondering if its anything to do with the diabetes, also if any one else has this, I've never had one before, any replys would be appreciated thank you.

Hello I have type 2 . If I were you I would go to your G.P.

Anything unusual on on your foot should be investigated as it

can quickly turn into an infection. Hope not to alarm you ..All the best.xxxx

Morning Valerie go to GP anything wrong with feet in a diabetic has to be looked at immediately don't leave it as it could turn nasty. Let's know how you get on. Take care 😘😘😘🤗🤗🤗

You should be getting a foot health care check, if you are not getting them regularly you should talk to your GP surgery and point that people with diabetes should be getting regular foot health checks and referred to a podiatrist if there are any concerns. As you already have a concern you should be able to go straight to a podiatrist. In some areas you can self refer but in others you might need your GP to refer.

Hello Valerie if I were you I would ask my doctors opinion on this, I am a type 2 diabetic and I have 3 monthly check ups on my feet, if there is anything amiss she deals with it for me, I also have yearly check ups on my eyes , I don't think it's anything to serious but it's rather safe than sorry all the best

Hi Valerie - from another of the same name - not that many of us named that around these days, so go check it out with your doc - or foot clinic.

I'm not diabetic but blood blisters - weird things. I have had one on top of right arm for years - had it checked out - no worries - just this sticky out big red thing - reckon it was from bra strap slipping and must have squeezed skin or something putting it back up.

Hope its just a weird one like mine.

Good luck and let us know the outcome.
