Why is Special Shoes Required for Diabetics?

Proper footwear is important for diabetics
Proper footwear is important for diabetics

Diabetic feet are particularly susceptible to pressure. As pressure builds up, the foot’s ability to manage the stresses and heal from inside diminishes. There is no pain to act as a warning indicator because of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, which causes numbness in the feet.

Diabetic shoes contain more depth, particularly in the toebox, to relieve pressure on your foot, especially over bony prominences such as bunions and hammertoes. They also provide custom-fit insoles that reduce pressure beneath your foot, preventing calluses from forming, which can lead to diabetic foot ulcers. Taking these precautions helps to avoid problems that lead to infection and reduces the risk of amputation.

At DeNiel Foot and Ankle Center, we offer and recommend diabetic shoes that are Medicare and private insurance authorized and will protect your diabetic feet while also looking great. To determine if you are eligible for this valuable insurance benefit meant to safeguard and save your feet, call our Houston podiatry clinic now to book an appointment.
