Description of Diabetic foot ulcers

Diabetic foot ulcer is a common complication of uncontrolled diabetes. Long-standing diabetes can damage your nerves and blood vessels. Nerve damage reduces your sensitivity to pain. Cuts or bruises to the foot may go unnoticed and put you at a risk of foot ulcers. Poor blood circulation due to the effect of diabetes on blood vessels may also lead to ulceration. The ulcer can become infected. Poor glucose control can impair wound healing. Neglecting a diabetic foot ulcer can lead to loss of the limb.
