Why is Foot Care Important?
Podiatrist in Houston
Over time, diabetes can cause you to lose feeling in your feet. When you lose feeling in your feet, you may not feel a pebble inside your sock or a blister on your foot, which can lead to cuts and sores. Diabetes also can lower the amount of blood flow in your feet. Numbness and less blood flow in the feet can lead to foot problems.
Taking Pressure off your Foot Ulcer
Foot & Ankle Specialists
Foot ulcers are partly caused by too much pressure on one part of your foot.
Debridement: Remove Dead or Infected Tissue
Treatment of Foot and Ankle
Debridement is the process to remove dead skin and tissue. Your doctor or nurse will need to do this to be able to see your foot ulcer. There are many ways to do this. One way is to use a scalpel and special scissors.
