The Importance of Diabetic Foot Care
As individuals with diabetes know, managing the condition goes beyond monitoring blood sugar levels and taking medications. It also involves taking good care of your feet, especially if you're experiencing symptoms like numbness, tingling, or poor circulation.
Diabetic foot problems can arise due to high blood sugar levels over time, leading to nerve damage and reduced blood flow to the feet. Without proper treatment, these issues can lead to severe complications such as foot ulcers, infections, and, in extreme cases, amputation.
