Diabetic Shoes at WeTreatFeet Podiatry!
If you or a loved one has diabetes, you know how crucial it is to take excellent care of your feet. Even a small cut, blister, or sore can lead to serious problems like ulcers, infections, and even amputations in some cases. That’s why wearing the right diabetic shoes and inserts is absolutely essential.
A recent groundbreaking study published in the prestigious Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy journal demonstrates just how powerful custom-molded diabetic footwear can be in preventing devastating foot complications. The researchers followed 48 patients with high-risk diabetic feet who were prescribed offloading footwear designed to reduce pressure and improve foot biomechanics.
The study forcefully concludes that “Patients’ adherence is imperative to efficacy of custom-molded offloading footwear during treatment of high-risk diabetic foot.” Here’s a powerful quote summing up the findings:
“Findings from the present study showed that the offloading device is an efficacious auxiliary therapeutic strategy for prevention of recurrence and amputation, and lowering mortality rates in diabetic foot patients.”
At WeTreatFeet Podiatry (www.wetreatfeet.com), we have been at the forefront of providing proper diabetic shoes, inserts, and offloading devices for over 20 years.
