HAVING DIABETES INCREASES THE RISK OF DEVELOPING A WIDE RANGE OF FOOT PROBLEMS MOST IMPORTANTLY ULCERS AND WOUNDS
People living with diabetes are prone to develop foot problems, because of two complications of diabetes: nerve damage (neuropathy) and poor circulation.
Neuropathy causes loss of feeling in your feet, taking away your ability to feel pain and discomfort, so you may not feel an injury or irritation. Poor circulation in your feet reduces your ability to heal, making it hard for even a tiny cut to resist infection
