In-Depth Guide to Diabetic Foot: From Symptoms to Effective Treatment Options with Dr. Lakshmi Kumar Chalamarla

Diabetic Foot refers to a complication in people with diabetes, characterized by infections, ulcers, or wounds that heal poorly due to nerve damage and poor blood circulation in the feet. High blood sugar levels can damage nerves (neuropathy) and lead to loss of sensation, increasing the risk of unnoticed injuries. Treatment includes managing blood sugar levels, proper wound care, antibiotics for infections, and in severe cases, surgery to remove infected tissue. Early diagnosis and regular foot care can prevent complications and promote healing. Specialized care from healthcare professionals is essential for effective management.
