I found this to be very inforomative!!
How true.. Watch those feet.
Great information
good information for us all
very infomative
much needed advice
You REALLY have to wear GOOD shoes when you go outside!
Good advice for all of us…
Get your feet checked regularly. Wear seamless socks or hose and shoes that are the right size and width.
Very good, Everybody please have the doctor check your feet every time you go to him/ her. I am on three types of meds for this to control the pain in them . I wear (special)shoes with inserts that cost close to you don't won't to know and that still doesn't help much. For lack of better words don't be afraid to stick your feet in the doc's face. Get them looked at.
scary but good to know
informative
This is really informative as I have had increasing numbness in my toes and feet the last couple of years. I have had some blisters that took weeks to heal even with me being very watchful and careful. Believe me I really take care of my feet ever since that incident.
Right now what I have mostly is pain in my feet. I really need to take care of my feet.
thanks you for this important information.
Excellant info. Thanks
Ouch !
If that's not enough to make you care about yourself !
Excellent video, everyone check your feet! I have had an ulcer since May and is very slow healing. Casts for 8 months, NO FUN!
Excellent video! Everyone with diabetes should take heed.
Good video and very informational. I've been a type 2 diabetic for 2 years and I've got neuropathy on both feet. Sometimes it is so painful I can't stand the blankets on my feet. I have a friend who just recently had 3 toes amputated and possibly will lose his whole leg up to his knee. This scares me to bits.
Thanks for sharing. I have that problem on side of my heel, been going on since first noticed in July. Two surgeries, three infections, and now a hickman catheter in my chest for IV infusions. Those with neuroapathy…CHECK YOUR FEET.
