It's World Diabetes Week, but how does that relate to feet? 🦶🏼
Diabetes can impact the nerves and blood vessels in the feet, increasing the risk of reduced sensation, slower healing and skin changes such as dryness.
While these changes can develop gradually, regular foot checks and good skincare habits can help you stay aware of any issues and take action early.
Something as simple as taking a few moments each day to inspect your feet and keep skin moisturised can become an important part of your self-care routine.
This World Diabetes Week, we're joining the conversation to help strike out the stigma surrounding diabetes through education, awareness and open conversations about foot health 👣🫶🏼
