Diabetic Foot Care includes all of the above with special attention to identify any potential areas where an ulceration or infection may start. The heel rims, in between the toes and the distal legs are common areas for skin breakdown. It is the fluctuations of a diabetics blood sugar level that puts them at potential risk for infection, along with changes in their nerves and circulation. Ongoing Diabetic foot care and visual inspection are important steps in keeping a diabetic “ulcer-free”.
