Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Diabetic foot ulcers are open sores or wounds that commonly develop on the feet of individuals with diabetes. They are caused by a combination of factors, including poor circulation, high blood sugar levels, and nerve damage, which reduce the ability to feel pain and heal properly. These ulcers can lead to serious complications if left untreated, such as infections or even amputations. Proper foot care and early treatment are essential to prevent and manage diabetic foot ulcers effectively.
