The goal of this clinical trial is to look at the outcomes of patients who have had bone infection of their feet treated with a licensed antibiotic paste. The main question it aims to answer is:
• How does the bone infection heal in response to the antibiotic paste?
Participants will:
* Undergo standard surgery to remove dead bone and drain any pus.
* Antibiotic paste is injected directly into the middle of the bone at surgery. This is instead of receiving antibiotics directly into their bloodstream for 6 weeks.
* Recieve one week of tablet antibiotics.
* Visit clinic 1 month after surgery for a normal clinical appointment. After, a research team member will ask the participant a few questions. The participant will also have a foot x-ray, wound photograph and fill out a short questionnaire.
* Visit clinic 6 months and 12 months following the surgery. A research team member will ask the participant a few questions. The participant will also have a foot x-ray, wound photograph and fill out a short questionnaire.
