Dear user, that depends on many factors such as type of worm, location of the bite, status of diabetes whether under treatment or not. Usually it resolves on its own. If the size of the bite becomes like an ulcer, then you have to get the wound cleaned at a hospital nearby and should be started on antibiotics. You can consult me for more doubts and medications regarding this online by clicking on my photo and booking an appointment however, if you found my answer helpful, please leave a positive feedback as it helps me with my practice. Thank you.
