and what would the treatment for wet gangrene be? For wet gangrene you would need to do a full medical workup, you'd also need to do a full peripheral circulation and neurological examination. I would potentially send for MRIs, one we would do blood assays to determine their levels of sepsis, combine that with their clinical and the MRI findings and then decide on how you're going to treat this either by chair side treatment which they can do at tier 4 diabetes in the acute hospital or alternatively do an incision and drainage which might be quite extensive and may then require reconstruction of the foot once the diabetes is under control.
