Early detection can minimize diabetic foot problems like infections. The importance of early detection cannot be stressed enough. It is widely known that diabetic foot infections probably cause more major amputations than any other single factor.
Most diabetic complications including infections are avoidable. By visiting you podiatrist regularly, you can greatly decrease your chance for the complications. The ADA (American Diabetes Association) recommends that all diabetics see their podiatrist on a regular basis.
