Neuropathy

With diabetes, you also have a good chance of developing neuropathy. Symptoms of neuropathy may include burning, tingling, numbness, or balance issues that increase fall and injury risk. We recommend that you come in for a comprehensive diabetic foot evaluation. Some common neuropathy treatment are nutritional supplements, prescription medications, injection therapy and in some cases surgical procedures to release swollen and compressed nerves. Once the evaluation is complete, We will design a treatment plan specifically for you.

Diabetic Wounds

Due to poor circulation or lack of sensation after poor circulation, diabetic feet are more susceptible to developing sores, and non-healing wounds which may lead to foot ulcers. These wounds can also develop into serious infections which can lead to amputations, loss of limbs and even loss of life.
