im 35 weeks have gd , I have puss now coming out of it this morning, ive done an online form for doctor but I think they'll just throw antibiotics at me which yes there is puss but its only a little, if I keep soaking in salt water surely will go on its own
but is having GD as dangerous as having normal diabetes when it comes to foot concerns ?
not sure if this can be left?

Go to a chiropodist to sort the ingrown toe nail out. That’s the best option.

Unmanaged/untreated and/or long term (i.e. years/decades) diabetes is what causes foot issues. Short term, well controlled (I hope) gestational diabetes shouldn't cause any issues.

ohh, I was abit confused, thought that maybe having diabetes wether gestational or not can make a foot infection worse or something
