Diabetic Foot Complications

Diabetic patients are prone to having foot problems, because diabetic neuropathy and poor circulation. Neuropathy causes loss of sensation in feet, taking away the ability to feel discomfort and pain, so the patient is unable to detect an injury or irritation in foot. Poor blood circulation in the feet reduces the patient’s ability to heal, making it hard for even a tiny cut to resist infection.

Diabetes-Related Foot & Leg Problems

• Infections and ulcers (sores) that do not heal
• Corns and calluses
• Dry, cracked skin
• Nail disorders
• Hammertoes and bunions
• Charcot foot
• Poor blood flow
