Because you're hungry for something gross:
 |
| some darkened skin (not gangrene) |
 |
| debriding begins |
 |
| somewhat debrided |
 |
| chunks of callus |
 |
| mostly debrided |
 |
| more still to go |
 |
| yet more chunky goodness |
 |
| looking a lot better (following day) |
To anticipate a question: no, you're not looking at bone. The bone's a lot deeper. And there's still plenty of callus on the left side that needs to be clipped off.
I thought I would hit the doc this morning, but I overslept. I might try to hit the podiatry clinic tomorrow morning and make an appointment to see someone on Monday.
Meanwhile, I've been making good on my promise to stay off my feet: I move only when necessary, and I spend most of my time either seated or lying down. I'll see the doc and stay off my feet for another week, then I'll resume local walks, with longer walks on Saturdays.
