One of the major complications of having diabetes is the peripheral nerve damage that can cause numbness in the feet and allow dangerous infections to spread, especially when combined with a decreased immune response and poor blood circulation. Essential diabetic foot care tips include, keeping your feet as clean and dry as possible, and seeing your foot doctor regularly to prevent and treat ulcerating infections and prevent possible amputations.
