However, the most chronic and debilitating complications of diabetes is Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). A nerve disorder caused by chronically high blood sugar and diabetes, it leads to numbness, loss of sensation to heat, cold or pain in extremities.
As a result of lack of sensations, combined with reduced blood flow, people may not realize when they have an ulcer or sore on their foot.
This sore can become infected, the infection can spread, and if left untreated, the foot may need to be amputated to keep the infection from spreading more.
Because the changes are subtle and happen as people get older, people tend to ignore the signs of nerve damage, thinking it's just part of getting older. Evidences suggest that DPN can often lead to poor quality of life and cause other health problems.
Early and regular foot Screening of DPN in clinical practice by a podiatrist is a simple objective tool to minimize serious consequences and in turn improve the patient’s quality of life.
