Yes it may happen especially if she is diabetic.
She needs to be adequately covered with antibiotics to avoid complications.

it is a serious complication due to a nasocomial infection.it must be treated by a broad spectrum antibiotics and maybe needs bitherapy with a good vascularisation of the foot by a veeinitonics
