Hey there....
Do not delay.
Your father appears to have some sort of cellulitis etc
More detailed history and clearer pics and possibly an examination is required.
Symptoms are not clearly mentioned as well.. what he is feeling exactly?
Either way, given his age and diabetic status an early and detailed discussion with a Dermatologist or Surgeon is advisable.
Feel free to connect via an INSTANT ONLINE Consultation for a quick response and resolution 🙏
Health Tips
Detailed lab tests are surely required but will depend on further details about your case.
Do not use creams or lotions or rub the area unless you consult a qualified Dermatologist 🙏
