I know, it seems odd to be told you have diabetes and then get a lecture from your doctor or nurse on the topic of foot care. As odd as it seems though, there’s a very good reason for it. You see, diabetes is a disease that is managed, not cured. And with time, if your blood glucose (sugar) has dipped and risen significantly over the years, you can develop problems, such as poor circulation – particularly to your feet.
