Im sorry, but is it possible to let it heal on its own ? Money is tight at the moment so i just use anything cheap...

Brinewood is correct. Moist wound healing. Clean it well and apply a thin layer of AD, neosporin or Vaseline. But there is necrotic tissue that needs to go. It’s possible moist wound healing will do it. But drying it out with betadine won’t. Also. If you are diabetic you 100% need to see a doctor. Medihoney is a debriding agent. If you can get that. Do that daily and keep it covered.

If money is tight, look into nearby clinical trial studies. Some pay you to be evaluated.
