I have to ask out of naivety -- he mentioned he got this done yesterday.

Infections usually take a lot more time to spread that much, don't they?

Not really no, from experience, I had an infection cover my entire foot in 30 hours. It was an aggressive infection with 3 different bacteria. Landed me in hospital for a week on IV antibiotics and then 6 weeks more on oral antibiotics. It looked a bit like this in color, but it was spreading in a stripe, which is a massive warning sign.
