The feet are one of the most affected parts of the human body; they carry our entire weight, transport us to our destination and are exposed to constant temperature fluctuations.
A part of the body that is sometimes forgotten, which deserves a lot of care, and even more when we talk about diabetic feet.
Diabetes has several effects on the feet, as they sometimes do not receive enough blood and oxygen, they change and different conditions are caused. A minimum of care and control over them is essential to achieve an optimal quality of life.
Tips for diabetic feet
-
The diabetic foot usually has no good blood circulation, which is why it should always be kept at the right temperature without major changes. You must protect it from cold and heat in the right way.
-
Be careful with new shoes. We all like to wear new shoes, but these are usually hard at first and although they are made of leather, they need a few days to adapt to the shape of our feet.Therefore, pay attention to new scratches or wounds in the first few days. Also, you should never wear new shoes for too long so as not to strain the feet too much. Of course, at Martin Natur, we always advise you to opt for good leather footwear and, if possible, with special width, designed for diabetic feet.
-
It is just as important to wear good shoes as good socks. Choose models made of natural wool or organic cotton. These materials let the foot breathe and keep it dry, to avoid chafing and temperature fluctuations.
-
In our daily lives, we sometimes neglect our health and acquire new habits that worsen our pathology, such as: sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, obesity, smoking, etc. All of them can be detrimental to our podiatric health.
-
And last but not least, maintain good hygiene. Wash your feet daily, get a pedicure regularly and file corns gently so as not to cause wounds. And if necessary, visit the podiatrist whenever you need it.
It is of crucial importance to take care of the health of our feet and always choose a suitable shoe that helps us and protects us with every step.
At Martin Natur, we are specialists in this type of shoes and advise you whenever you need it.
