Diabetic Foot Care: Essential Dos and Don’ts

Diabetes can cause serious foot complications. Here’s how to care for your feet:

  • Do inspect your feet daily for cuts, sores, or infections.
  • Don’t walk barefoot, as injuries can go unnoticed.
  • Do keep your feet clean and dry.
  • Don’t ignore foot pain—seek medical advice promptly.
  • Do wear diabetic-friendly footwear.
  • Don’t attempt to self-treat corns or calluses.

Proper diabetic foot care can prevent ulcers and infections that could lead to amputations. If you have diabetes, regular podiatry checkups are essential.
