Managing Diabetes

Managing Diabetes

If you have diabetes, you are probably already aware of the importance of maintaining optimal foot health to prevent complications. Getting your feet checked annually is key to ensuring they stay in great shape and minimise the risk of developing problems.


Diabetes isn't just about sugar levels—it can affect your nerves and blood flow, leading to symptoms like numbness, burning, decreased or loss of sensation, and compromised wound healing. But there's plenty we can do to help prevent these issues, and that's where our team of Podiatrists at Junction Foot and Ankle Group comes in.


We have a wealth of experience in diabetic foot care. Through meticulous assessment and attentive care, we can identify early signs of trauma, ulcerations, or sensory deficits, empowering you with timely interventions and preventative strategies.


At Junction Foot and Ankle Group, we place great emphasis on the importance of annual assessments as a cornerstone of preventative care. We'll send you a reminder each year (or earlier if needed), so you don't have to worry about remembering. These regular check-ups help us keep track of any changes and tackle any concerns before they become bigger problems.


We are dedicated to delivering the highest standard of care and support. Let’s work together towards healthier feet.
