Why it matters

Small problems can become serious, fast

For people with diabetes, nerve damage can hide pain while reduced circulation slows healing. A minor blister, cut, or callus can quietly become an ulcer or infection. Regular podiatric exams catch issues early — before they threaten your foot or your independence.

What puts diabetic feet at risk

The risk factors we watch

Peripheral Neuropathy

Nerve damage can dull or hide pain, so injuries go unnoticed until they worsen.

Reduced Circulation

Poor blood flow starves tissue of oxygen and slows healing of even minor wounds.

Slow Wound Healing

High blood sugar impairs the body’s repair process, raising the risk of infection.

Pressure & Deformity

Calluses, bunions, and hammertoes create pressure points where ulcers can form.
