Vascular Surgery - Diabetic Foot Treatment in
India
Diabetes mellitus (DM) represents several
diseases in which high blood glucose levels over
time can damage the nerves, kidneys, eyes, and
blood vessels. Diabetes can also decrease the
body's ability to fight infection. When diabetes
is not well controlled, damage to the organs and
impairment of the immune system is likely.
People with diabetes must be fully aware of how
to prevent foot problems before they occur, to
recognize problems early, and to seek the right
treatment when problems do occur. Although
treatment for diabetic foot problems has
improved, prevention - including good control of
blood sugar level - remains the best way to
prevent diabetic complications. Damage to
blood vessels and impairment of the immune system
from diabetes make it difficult to heal these
wounds. Bacterial infection of the skin,
connective tissues, muscles, and bones can then
occur. These infections can develop into
gangrene.

Diabetic Foot Care Causes
  • Footwear  Poorly fitting shoes are a common
    cause of diabetic foot problems.
  • If the patient has red spots, sore spots,
    blisters, corns, calluses, or consistent pain
    associated with wearing shoes, new properly
    fitting footwear must be obtained as soon as
    possible.
  • Nerve damage  People with long-standing or
    poorly controlled diabetes are at risk for
    having damage to the nerves in their feet. The
    medical term for this is peripheral neuropathy.
  • Poor circulation  Especially when poorly
    controlled, diabetes can lead to accelerated
    hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis.
    When blood flow to injured tissues is poor,
    healing does not occur properly.
  • Trauma to the foot  Any trauma to the foot can
    increase the risk for a more serious problem to
    develop.

Diabetic Foot Treatment in India
  • Antibiotics  If the doctor determines that a
    wound or ulcer on the patient's feet or legs is
    infected, he or she may recommend for antibiotic
    therapy. Generally, the patient should see some
    improvement in the wound in two to three days and
    may see improvement on the first day itself. For
    limb-threatening or life-threatening infections,
    the patient will be admitted to the hospital and
    given IV antibiotics. Less serious infectionsmay
    be treated with pills as an outpatient.
  • Referral to Podiatrist or Orthopedic Surgeon
     If the patient has bone-related problems,
    toenail problems, corns and calluses, hammertoes,
    bunions, flat feet, heel spurs, arthritis, or has
    difficulty with finding shoes that fit, a
    physician may refer you to one of these
    specialists. They create shoe inserts, prescribe
    shoes, remove calluses and have expertise in
    surgical solutions for bone problems. They can
    also be an excellent resource for how to care for
    the patient's feet routinely.
