What can you do to take care of your feet
if you have diabetes?
Let’s go through some important do’s and don’ts:
Do:
- Make exercise a regular part of your routine and strive for a healthy weight.
- Keep your blood sugar levels in check to minimize the risk of complications.
- Inspect your feet diligently daily, looking out for any wounds or abnormalities.
- Pay attention to sores, blisters, or signs of infection, and seek
professional help. - Ensure that your shoes fit properly and get fitted by a professional whenever you purchase new ones.
- Wear thick and soft socks with your shoes to provide extra cushioning and protection.
- Always wear shoes that fit well to prevent injuries and reduce the risk of developing foot problems.
- Schedule regular visits to your chiropodist to receive the specialized care your feet deserve.
Don’t
- Walk around barefoot, even within the comfort of your own home. Protect your feet at all times.
- Choose footwear such as high heels, sandals, or shoes with pointed toes that can cause discomfort or restrict blood flow.
- Wear anything that fits too tightly around your legs, which can impede circulation.
- Attempt to remove calluses, corns, or warts on your own. Leave these tasks to the professionals who can handle them safely and effectively.
- Forget that we offer cold laser therapy, a cutting-edge treatment that can benefit certain foot conditions.
