I’ve got this on my back - I’m a t1 diabetic. Started antibiotics for it on Monday so maybe I just need to wait.
It is sore and I’m not feeling well but I also have a bad cold so it could well be that as well.

What exactly is it? Is it getting worse or better or neither?

It’s just like a big sore that’s opened up.
it’s not getting any better, so far. I feel unwell but I also have a bad cold so temp could be slightly elevated due to that.
I don’t want to make a fuss and usually don’t worry but I also don’t want sepsis.

As you are diabetic I would be calling 111 to get that looked at ASAP

That’s something for your GP to look at , hope you feel better soon .
