Does this look like the beginning of a pressure ulcer? Would you see a GP about it?

Yes , you should see the GP

It will most likely be treated the Tissue Viability nurse regularly

Poor circulation, diabetes , advancing years - all contribute to poor healing so make the most of any specialist help
