Crowd sourcing today’s medical question.
MRI says it could be a bone infection in my foot.
It could be trauma from injuring it three weeks ago.
The foot WAS infected two months ago from a dog bite.

Do I:

Surgery/Biopsy to be safe

Risk losing toes like MTG

This should not even be a question (unless you have solid reasonS to believe your med care is very substandard)

MRI already showing apparent infection + likely event cause several weeks ago == get it checked out as deeply and as rapidly as possible!

It can get much worse than a toe loss

Get Well
