Diabetic foot: What to do and not to do
Journal Title: Global Journal of Obesity, Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Those who live with diabetes must pay attention to its extremities, especially the feet. It's just when you're feeling good, because you control your complicated relationship with sugars, here's a small abrasion, a badly cut nail, a callus, a bladder caused by fashionable shoes but not quite adapted to your foot, a mushroom can turn a banality into drama. Before designing a specific diabetic prevention plan - aimed at reducing the risk of neuropathic foot complications - it is necessary to identify the patient's risk factors and incorrect lifestyle habits.
