Understanding Diabetic Foot Complications
Diabetes can impact both circulation and nerve function in the lower extremities. Reduced blood flow may delay healing, while nerve damage (neuropathy) can limit sensation in the feet. When injuries go unnoticed, even minor cuts or pressure points can develop into serious wounds.
Common diabetic foot complications include:
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Slow-healing or non-healing wounds
• Infections
• Neuropathy-related numbness or tingling
• Skin discoloration
• Structural deformities that increase pressure
Early podiatric care plays a critical role in preventing these complications from progressing.
If you are experiencing pain or have concerns about your foot or ankle health, we are here to help.
