The Importance of Foot Care for Diabetic Patients
Diabetes can lead to various complications, and one area of concern is foot health. High blood sugar levels can cause nerve damage, reduced blood flow, and weakened immune response, making diabetic patients more susceptible to foot problems. Regular foot care is crucial to prevent complications such as infections, ulcers, and even amputations.
