Need Treatment?

By definition, the diabetic foot runs a higher risk of complications due to a lack of sensitivity (neuropathy), decreased blood circulation (vascularization), and a high level of blood sugar that reduces the healing capacity and the effectiveness of the immune system in fighting infections.

Symptoms

  • Gradual loss of sensitivity (neuropathy)
  • Deformation of the feet
  • Leg pain
  • Change of skin colour
  • Abnormal pressure points
  • Ingrown toenails and fungus
  • Dry Skin
  • Corns and calluses that bleed
  • Cracks on the heels

Be aware that both corns and calluses that are not adequately addressed can lead to serious complications, such as ulcers, infections, and even to amputation of the foot in the case of diabetics.

Certain diabetics will not be able to feel pain or other sensations on their feet and will interpret this as reason not to seek medical help. Undiagnosed neuropathy can be a serious health risk. Consult your podiatrist to avoid such complications.
