Leg Boil/ Leg Ulcer
I've been having leg boil or ulcer since last month weeks. There is one on my left leg and it has already healed for like 2 weeks. But the other, the one on the right is still not healing. I don't know if it is a boil or an ulcer. Can you explain the difference?
And I have diabetes.
