FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Diabetic foot management involves the comprehensive care and prevention strategies for individuals with diabetes to maintain healthy feet and prevent complications. It includes regular foot examinations, proper footwear recommendations, wound care, and education on foot hygiene.
People with diabetes are at higher risk for foot problems due to reduced blood flow and nerve damage, which can lead to infections, ulcers, and in severe cases, amputations. Proper foot care helps to prevent these complications and maintain overall foot health.
During a foot examination, we check for any signs of cuts, blisters, redness, swelling, or infections. We also assess the condition of the skin, nails, and overall foot structure. It’s important to monitor changes in sensation and circulation as well.
You should see a podiatrist/surgeon if you experience persistent foot pain, numbness, swelling, wounds that don’t heal, or any other changes in your feet. Early intervention can prevent more serious complications.
It’s generally recommended that individuals with diabetes see a podiatrist at least monthly once for a comprehensive foot exam. However, if you notice any issues such as pain, swelling, or changes in your feet, you should schedule an appointment immediately.
Common symptoms include numbness or tingling in the feet, persistent pain, redness, swelling, and the presence of sores or ulcers. Changes in the skin or nail condition can also indicate problems.
If you have a foot injury or sore that isn't healing, it’s important to seek professional medical advice promptly. Delayed treatment can lead to serious complications, especially in individuals with diabetes.
Laser diabetic wound care uses advanced laser technology to promote healing in chronic diabetic wounds. The laser stimulates blood flow, reduces inflammation, and accelerates tissue repair. This non-invasive treatment is aimed at improving the healing process and reducing the risk of complications.
Laser diabetic wound care is recommended for all patients with chronic or non-healing diabetic foot ulcers or other wounds. Our team will evaluate your condition and explain about the laser treatment for you.
The number of sessions required varies depending on the severity and type of wound. Our surgeon will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your wound and response to therapy.
During a laser treatment session, you will be comfortably positioned while the laser is applied to the affected area. The procedure is generally painless and non-invasive. You may feel a slight warming sensation as the laser works.
Laser treatment is generally safe with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience temporary redness or mild discomfort at the treatment site. Not many patients have experienced such side effects.
Preventive measures include maintaining good foot hygiene, inspecting your feet daily, wearing appropriate footwear, managing blood sugar levels, and keeping regular appointments with your podiatrist.
Treatment for diabetic neuropathy focuses on managing symptoms and slowing progression. This may include medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes to improve blood sugar control and overall foot health.
Footwear for people with diabetes should be well-fitting, supportive, and made of materials that provide cushioning. Avoid shoes with seams that could cause irritation, and consider custom orthotics if recommended by your podiatrist.
Yes, we suggest custom orthotics designed to provide support, improve foot function, and reduce pressure on vulnerable areas. Our podiatrist/surgeon will assess your needs and provide recommendations tailored to your specific condition.
