It could be related to diabetes. Diabetic foot is known to occur due to the damage of peripheral nerves and vessels because of high blood sugar. But, don't worry. It can be cured with medicine and blood sugar control. Please visit a good diabetologist for the same. You will have to get few tests like vascular Doppler scan of both lower limbs and take short term insulin for early recovery.
