Description
Mohamed Hamdy Serour and colleagues shared a 2026 case report on a foot wound in a man with diabetes. The man was forty-seven, smoked, and had type two diabetes. A sore between his toes on the left foot would not heal. The sore deepened until a tendon, the cord that moves the toe, showed through. Standard wound care cleared an early infection but then stalled.
The team added a laser treatment that gently removes dead tissue with light. Week by week the wound shrank after that. Skin grew over the tendon, and the sore closed fully by eight weeks. The authors present the case as a step-by-step plan. They suggest laser care as a backup when standard care stalls, not as a first step.
