Diabetes and poor circulation (vascular disease)

Foot And Ankle > Conditions > Diabetes and poor circulation (vascular disease)
Diabetes and poor circulation

Diabetes is a condition which can affect the lower limb including the foot and ankle. This is more likely to occur when blood sugar levels fluctuate greatly and cause damage to the blood vessels and nerves of the foot and ankle. When such damage occurs the foot and ankle is less able to heal from injury to the skin, soft tissue, bones or joints. Patients with vascular disease (poor blood supply or inefficient veins) can also develop problems with healing after injury.

Patients with diabetes or vascular disease need to be assessed by their podiatrist at least every 12 months. Such assessments by the podiatrist are important to prevent foot and ankle complications such as ulceration, arthritis and amputation.
