You need to see the podiatrists. As a diabetic, you can contact your locol podiatry department without going throuhg your doctor. Phone them.
In the meantime, I wouldn't uese E45 either. I find it dries skin. Try using Vaseline on your feet at night and then putting socks over. ( I was told this by a podiatrist)
How are your BG's and what are you eating?
