Why is it important to check my feet?
The earlier you notice changes to your feet and seek help, the more likely you are to treat any problem that may arise before they lead to potentially severe complications. People with diabetes are at higher risk of developing a condition called neuropathy, where they lose sensitivity in your nerves, especially in their feet. If you do not have this sense of feeling in your feet, you may hurt your foot and not realize it. Left untreated, these injuries can possibly lead to complications, perhaps even amputation. It is important to notice these issues as soon as possible so that you can have them treated and improve your foot health.
