People with diabetes are prone to foot problems that develop due to prolonged periods of high blood sugar levels. Diabetic neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease are the two main foot problems that can occur.
If you are a diabetic, it is recommended you only wear diabetic shoes as they are designed with special features that help comfort and protect the diabetic's feet.
When you have diabetes, you need to take special care of your feet. That's why it's important to check your feet daily and choose your shoes wisely.
-
Look for shoes which are made with soft and stretchable materials.
-
Remember that shoes with laces have better support and fit better
-
A cushioned sole will provide for better shock absorption
-
Look for shoes that do not have inner seam as they can cause blisters or hot spots due to rubbing
