Hi
I hope you don't mind me asking this question as i am not sure if i have diabetes or not. i broke my ankle 4 weeks ago and consequently have a cast on with still 2 and a half weeks to go till it is removed. i went to have my cast changed last Thursday & it was noticed there was a wet sore on the sole of my foot. The plaster technician thought it was due to sweat but I have have had a burning foot that painkillers relieve from a week after i had my plaster, my whole foot feels sore& I fear there are more sores developing. I'm very worried, could you give me advice please?
 
Go and see you doctor ASAP ,get the sore sorted out and then ask doctor for a blood test to check for diabetes.
