Diabetic Foot

It is essential for diabetic patients to take extra care of their feet. Diabetes affects the body by impairing the nervous and circulatory systems causing risk to the patient by not providing the necessary sensory mechanisms to prevent prolonged damage to the feet.

Diabetic foot problems need to be treated with absolute care, as minor injuries can rapidly become serious. Diabetes slows down the natural healing process and increases the risk of infection. Diabetes often results in feet being the first part of the body to be affected, but serious problems can be avoided by providing extra attention to your feet on a daily basis. Poor foot care can lead to serious issues, such as ulcers and amputation so regular diabetic foot care is very important.
