Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers are a common and serious complication affecting individuals with diabetes, often leading to severe infections and even amputation if left untreated. Understanding the underlying causes, such as neuropathy, poor circulation, and pressure points, is crucial for effective prevention. This abstract explores key strategies for preventing foot ulcers in diabetes patients, including maintaining good blood sugar control, daily foot inspections, proper foot hygiene, choosing appropriate footwear, regular foot exams, and seeking prompt treatment for any wounds. By implementing these preventive measures, individuals with diabetes can significantly reduce their risk of developing foot ulcers and maintain their foot health and overall well-being.
