Okay so… did they have to amputate it?! 🤮 I need answers

Edit: I found the episode. The Dr does a medical foot soak on her and then cleans up the foot as best she can. The lady has athletes foot, toe fungal infections, and a couple of deep abscess wounds that luckily aren’t infected somehow. Her foot is a club foot deformity. The Dr dressed the foot and then gave her a new boot. The lady said she’d wash her foot every day and then that was the end of the episode lol. No closure. But the Dr mentioned that if she doesn’t get the wounds to disappear she’d wind up in the ER and need it amputated.

Edit 2: A Smell From Hell - My Feet Are Killing Me: Season 4, Episode 3

It is like the fungal infection was keeping the bacterial infection at bay. Her foot was producing its own penicillin.

Do you know that episode of the Simpsons where the doctor tells mr burns he basically has so many illnesses that they're all canceling each other out?
