If you have diabetes it is necessary to take further precautions with your feet. This is because diabetes affects your feet in two ways: it not only can alter your nerves that will then make you less sensitive to pain but it can also make any cuts or sores more difficult to heal. This means that if you accidentally cut your foot, you may not even know it and that cut can remain open and susceptible to infection for a long time. In order to keep your feet happy and healthy, there are certain precautions that you should take on a regular basis.
If you believe that your feet are not as healthy as they should be, give us a call at Heart of Texas Foot Care Center in Brownwood, TX today. We will bring you in for an appointment to make sure that your feet remain healthy and properly taken care of.
