Need to see a good diabetic foot specialist (podiatrist) for debridement of dead skin. If taking any flozin (emagliflozin/dapagliflozin) then ideally stop it. Start Vibramycin 100mg two capsules on first day and then once daily for atleast 6 weeks provided no allergies. Before starting I would advise a wound swab and culture sensitivity. She need special boot to keep heel off from pressure. If get an X ray foot will be fine and MRI heal would be ideal.
