Diabetic Foot Care
Patients with diabetes require specialized foot care due to the increased risk of neuropathy (nerve damage), poor circulation, and infections. Even minor injuries can become serious problems if not treated promptly, making preventive care essential.
At In Motion Foot and Ankle, we provide comprehensive diabetic foot care, including regular examinations, wound care, vascular testing, and patient education. Our goal is to identify issues early and prevent complications such as ulcers or infections.
Treatment for diabetic foot problems may include wound debridement, protective padding, antibiotics for infection, or advanced therapies to improve circulation and healing. Preventive custom orthotics are often recommended to reduce pressure points.
By combining advanced medical care with patient education, we help those with diabetes maintain healthy feet and avoid serious outcomes such as hospitalization or amputation.
