Diabetes Foot & Leg Center

People with diabetes face much higher risk of foot problems. These include ulcer, a degenerative condition called Charcot foot and bone diseases such as osteomyelitis and osteopathy. If not treated promptly, foot injuries can worsen to the point when amputation and prosthetic limbs may become necessary. However, daily foot care and regular foot exams can help prevent problems.
