Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Insulin + Regular Dressing  Wound of the patient will be cleaned with sterile normal saline (0.9% NaCl)then wound will be injected with human soluble insulin (regular)diluted in 1 ml saline for each 1cm2 of wound. The total dose of insulin will be the dose patient is already taking to control diabetes. The prepared solution will be injected clockwise on the ulcer base with an insulin syringe at 2,4,6,8,10,12 o clock position and then topically mupirocin cream will be applied then covered with sterile cotton gauze. only the morning dose of insulin will be injected into the wound. dose- total dose will be the insulin which is already been prescribed to the patient for his/her diabetes control frequency- will be once a day route- subcutaneous in the wound base duration- untill the wound heals (approx 20-30 days) 
Comparator Agent  Regular Dressing  Wound of the patient will be cleaned with sterile normal saline (0.9% NaCl)and mupirocin ointment will be applied and covered with sterile cotton gauze.
