People with diabetes are at high risk of
severe foot disorders, including foot ulceration,
infection, and even amputation. Studies show that proper footwear,
consisting of well fitted shoes with sufficient width and depth along with
protective molded insoles, can dramatically reduce the risk of ulceration and
amputation. -
