Abstract

Foot problems in diabetics most often arise from vascular disease, neuropathy, or infection, which may be especially persistent and difficult to treat. A sensible program of foot care may help reduce the need for amputation. Recommended measures include daily inspection, comfortable footwear, and proper management of corns and ingrown toenails.
