Diabetic Skin Care

Diabetic foot care

The best care

Diabetes itself increases the risk of developing foot problems. People who have diabetes need to be very careful with their feet and require ongoing assessments and monitoring. As blood sugar levels can escalate, it is easier for infections to take hold. Your Podiatrist will thoroughly investigate your feet and provide you with full education on how to care for them and how to prevent injury.

Foot Assessments are annually conducted.

​

  • Nerve sensation checks (ability to feel pressure, touch,           temperature)

  • Circulation testing (assessing blood flow to the feet and toes)

  • Assessing areas of high loading, and areas at risk of ulceration

  • Identifying areas of skin build up

  • Identifying any nail pathologies

  • Footwear advise

Schedule online. It's easy, fast and secure.
