Our Services

Here are some key components of reconstructive diabetic foot care:

Foot Examination

Foot Examination

We conduct a comprehensive examination of the foot, focusing on its structure, sensation, and blood supply. We assess pressure changes resulting from alterations in joint and bone structure, as well as muscle changes associated with diabetes. These tests are instrumental in preventing wounds and foot pain effectively. Additionally, they aid in the development of treatment plans, including offloading surgeries, to promote faster wound healing.

Wound Care

Wound Care

Each wound requires specialized care that extends beyond simple dressings. Effective wound management entails a comprehensive understanding of the underlying cause. Numerous innovative treatment modalities exist, including ointments, dressing materials, topical oxygen therapy, and negative pressure therapy. These advanced approaches offer promising solutions for optimizing wound healing.

Infection Control

Infection Control

Advanced antibiotic therapy and surgical debridement to prevent and treat serious foot infections.

Vascular Assessment

Vascular Assessment

Evaluation of blood circulation and ABI measurements for complete evaluation to improve healing and prevent complications.

Reconstructive Surgery

Reconstructive Surgery

Advanced surgical techniques including skin grafts, flaps, and microsurgery for complex foot reconstruction to help salvage a badly infected foot.

Offloading Surgeries

Offloading Surgeries

Treatment for the ulcer is not only about treating the wound, but to treat the problem causing it. The complete assessment of the foot helps in analysing the problem and plan surgeries to decrease the pressures accordingly.

Post Operative Care

Post Operative Care

Care of the patients don't end with surgery of the foot or wound healing. It involves life long care, simple daily steps which can prevent complications and help identify them early. Proper footwear is one of the most important part of the foot care and we with our tie up partners help in providing customized foot wear, which are not only comfortable, but will be good to look at.

Expert Tips for Diabetic Foot Care

Daily Inspection

Check your feet daily for cuts, blisters, redness, or swelling. Use a mirror to examine the bottom of your feet or ask someone to help you inspect areas you can't see clearly.

Proper Footwear

Wear well-fitting shoes and avoid walking barefoot. Choose breathable materials and ensure there's adequate room for your toes. Custom orthotics may be recommended for optimal pressure distribution.

Blood Sugar Control

Maintain healthy blood glucose levels to promote healing and prevent further complications. Regular monitoring and medication compliance are essential for optimal foot health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about diabetic foot care and our treatments

When should I consider seeing a foot surgeon as a diabetic?

You should consider seeing a foot surgeon if you have persistent wounds that don't heal within 2-3 weeks, recurring infections, signs of poor circulation (cold feet, color changes), loss of sensation, or structural deformities. Early intervention is crucial to prevent complications and potential amputation.

I have had a non-bothersome wound for two years. Do I still need to get it checked?

Yes, absolutely. Any wound that persists for more than a few weeks, especially in diabetic patients, requires professional evaluation. Chronic wounds can lead to serious complications including bone infections (osteomyelitis) and may require surgical intervention. What seems "non-bothersome" now could become a serious threat to your limb.

I've heard that diabetic patients should avoid surgery due to infection risks. How can I undergo foot surgery if needed?

While diabetic patients do have higher infection risks, modern surgical techniques and proper management make surgery safe and often necessary. We optimize your blood sugar levels pre-operatively, use advanced wound care techniques, and provide comprehensive post-operative care. The risk of not treating serious foot conditions often outweighs surgical risks.

What are the essential precautions and daily care needed for diabetic foot health?

Daily foot inspection is crucial - check for cuts, blisters, redness, or swelling. Maintain proper foot hygiene, wear well-fitting shoes, never walk barefoot, keep blood sugar levels controlled, moisturize feet (but not between toes), trim nails carefully, and schedule regular professional foot examinations. Early detection and prevention are key.

Can diabetes affect my feet even if I don't have any noticeable symptoms?

Yes, diabetes can cause silent damage to your feet through nerve damage (neuropathy) and poor circulation. You may lose sensation gradually without realizing it, making you unable to feel injuries or pressure points. Regular professional screenings can detect these changes early, even before symptoms appear.

How can I prevent foot complications as a diabetic?

Prevention involves maintaining excellent blood sugar control, daily foot inspections, proper footwear, regular exercise to improve circulation, avoiding smoking, managing blood pressure and cholesterol, scheduling regular podiatric examinations, and promptly addressing any foot problems. Professional education and custom orthotics may also be recommended.
