Firstly, there is a reduced sensation in the extremities. This is because of diabetic neuropathy or damage to the smaller nerves of the foot by consistently elevated blood glucose levels. Since there are no sensations felt in the feet, one may not realize if there is an injury, as there will be no pain sensed. As soon as blood sugar levels are off balance, a person becomes more vulnerable to infections.<\/p><p>Diabetic persons catch infections more easily and the wounds do not heal quickly. Reduced sensations along with easy access to infections produce a favorable environment for the growth of infection, thus leading to production of ulcers. The most dangerous situation is foot problems associated with diabetes as one may not feel a blister, sore or even an injury by nail till its large enough to be visible. Thus, it is necessary to examine the foot each day, at the end of the day for diabetics.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8c771d0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8c771d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>DIABETIC FOOT CARE AND ULCERS<\/h2><p>An ulcer formation is a potentially fatal condition for diabetics as it will lead to formation of gangrene if not treated in time. The ulcer formation is a slow and gradual process with oozing of pus. On examination of the foot one may initially see redness, edema and inflamed skin called as cellulitis leading to an ulcer formation. An ulcer is a break in the normal skin with wounds formed deeper than the top layer of the skin. If the infection of the foot travels still deeper into the bone, it may lead to osteomyelitis (infection and inflammation of the bones).\u00a0<\/p><p>If the wound of the foot starts smelling bad or rotten, it may be due to the decaying tissues in and around the wound, and this marks the beginning of gangrenous changes in the foot. Gangrene foot is the result of a person suffering from uncontrolled diabetes and is a potential factor for permanently losing feet, as, if the wound does not heal by debridement, one may have to go in for amputation of the part.\u00a0<\/p><p>It is very common that we see missing toes and certain portions of the feet in diabetic patients as there may have been removal of the gangrenous portions multiple times.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c7983f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6c7983f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"848\" height=\"565\" src=\"https:\/\/warnerorthopedics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/33084857_s.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-320566\" alt=\"Diabetic Foot Care is a Key Component of Healthy Diabetes Maintenance - Doctor Checking Foot\" srcset=\"https:\/\/warnerorthopedics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/33084857_s.jpg 848w, https:\/\/warnerorthopedics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/33084857_s-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/warnerorthopedics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/33084857_s-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/warnerorthopedics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/33084857_s-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e092c55 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e092c55\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>DIABETIC FOOT PAIN<\/h2><p>If we quickly understand the pathology undergoing the disease, we may see that there is extreme pain in the feet of a diabetic person. Even a light touch or any pressure on the feet will cause tremendous amount of pain, generally out of proportion to the touch. One may also feel a burning sensation in the feet that is not relieved easily. This is due to inflammation of nerves due to long standing diabetes and if it persists unchecked, will lead to permanent sensation loss.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a56792 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6a56792\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>DIABETIC FOOT CARE AND INFECTION<\/h2><p>The candida organism causes rampant fungal infection of the feet in persons suffering from diabetes. The infection usually attacks the skin between the toes where there is dampness along with absence of sensation. Commonly, there is adequate oxygenated blood circulating in the arteries of legs but in diabetics there is stiffness of the arteries causing decreased amounts of nutrients and oxygen to the feet. This process leads to lesser efficiency in clearing the infection.\u00a0<\/p><p>Bacterial as well as fungal infection both grow in ample quantity without sufficient blood supply reaching to those parts. Toenails affected by fungal infection is a very common feature amongst diabetics.
