• Diabetes disease makes people prone to ulcers due to the loss of sensation in the organs, and precisely because of this, the patient does not realize the progress of his ulcer. Diabetic foot ulcers are the ulcers that develop on the patient’s legs and feet. Diabetic people experience this wound at least once in their lifetime. At first, it may only appear as just another wound. This wound can be caused by a cut, scratch or other minor injury. Unlike normal wounds that heal naturally within a few days, diabetic wounds do not heal well. This is due to poor circulation and nerve damage associated with diabetes. To prevent this, you should check your feet daily. Check the back of the leg with the help of a mirror. Don’t forget to check between your fingers. Avoid using open shoes. Try to always wear cotton socks. If you have a wound and it does not heal within a week, be sure to see a specialist. Note that controlling your blood sugar is the priority of treatment, so don’t forget to visit your endocrinologist periodically.
