Unknown cause of swollen painful feet with sores

My grandmother's feet were cold and painful and now they are dark with sores and puss. They have been like this a few weeks and the GP's can't work out the cause. She has had a course of antibiotics which haven't helped. Can anybody help with a diagnosis? She has has a blood test which came back ok.

Has she had things like her blood sugar checked with the blood tests?  Is she keeping her feet clean and dry?  Have the GP's had any guesses as to what the cause was?
