3 Tips for Diabetic Foot

 

Here are 3 tips every diabetic patient needs to know about their feet.

Tip #1: Get a Diabetic Foot Exam Every Year.

If you are a diabetic, then you need to make sure you get a comprehensive, annual diabetic foot exam to assess your risks for problems with diabetes.

Tip #2: Inspect Your Feet Morning and Night.

You need to inspect your feet morning and night to watch for signs of infection, and cuts or scrapes that may occur.

Tip #3: Wear Proper Diabetic Shoe Gear.

You should have proper diabetic show gear and wear it as a preventative measure.
