Patients with diabetes are at a higher risk of nerve damage and circulation issues due to abnormally-high blood sugar levels. This may instigate or aggravate existing foot problems, like sores, ingrown nails and infections. People with diabetes are more prone to foot problems, which is why moderating and treating foot health is imperative.
