| Diabetes and the feet
Do you have high blood sugar? Do you know how Diabetes can affect your feet?
Unfortunately, in Australia every 3 hours a person with diabetes has a lower limb removed as a direct result of diabetes-related foot disease. 80% of these amputations are preventable with best practice treatment and ongoing management. *
It is recommended that people who suffer from diabetes should have their feet assessed annually to help detect if there are changes to the blood flow or nerve supply of your feet.
