What are Diabetic Foot Wounds?
Diabetic foot wounds are open sores or ulcers that develop on the feet of individuals with diabetes, typically due to a combination of poor circulation, nerve damage (neuropathy), and compromised immune response. These wounds often appear on pressure points like the heel or ball of the foot and can become serious quickly if not properly treated. Even minor wounds can lead to infections or deeper tissue damage when diabetes is involved.
Common Symptoms of Diabetic Foot Wounds
- Open sores or ulcers that won’t heal
- Swelling or redness around the wound
- Drainage or pus from the wound
- Foul odor
- Pain, or numbness due to neuropathy
- Blackened tissue (sign of necrosis)
