The patient's ankle joint has vascular and neuropathy in the foot, which leads to insufficient blood supply to the foot, abnormal sensation, ulceration and infection.

Symptoms, severe cases can affect muscles and bones, leading to tissue necrosis and even amputation.

It is estimated that every 20 seconds, 1 diabetic patients in the world have their limbs amputated due to diabetic foot. The mortality rate of diabetic foot amputees is as high as 22%, and the annual mortality rate of ulcer patients is as high as 1 1%.

According to the severity of foot ischemia, it can be divided into ischemic type, nerve type and nerve ischemia type.

Diabetic foot is diabetes.

One of the most serious chronic complications of patients is mainly caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

, diabetic angiopathy, infection

And trauma.

The main manifestations of patients are abnormal sensation of feet, foot deformity and pain caused by foot ischemia.

, walking difficulties, etc. , often complicated with infection.

Ulcer, gangrene and even amputation. Early manifestations are low skin temperature, pain and other symptoms of insufficient blood supply to the lower limbs, numbness and other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy; Necrosis of muscle and bone tissue occurs in the late stage of foot, such as osteomyelitis.

Dry or wet gangrene

Wait a minute.

The early manifestations of diabetic foot are low skin temperature, pain and other symptoms of insufficient blood supply to the lower limbs, as well as symptoms of peripheral neuropathy such as numbness and dullness. Suggest diabetes

% patients can have regular foot examination according to the doctor's advice, and pay attention to avoid foot trauma and infection. If you find that your feet are abnormal, you should actively accept the corresponding treatment.

You should go to a conditional hospital as soon as possible.

, symptomatic drug treatment; For patients with severe ischemia and unsatisfactory systemic drug treatment, surgery can be used to rebuild blood flow; When the infection spreads, amputation can be taken to save the patient's life.

Diabetic foot is a chronic complication. Only by controlling peripheral neuropathy and peripheral arterial diseases and improving plantar pressure can diabetic foot ulcer be effectively prevented, otherwise it will easily recur.

The occurrence and development of diabetic foot can be prevented and delayed by improving lifestyle, good nutritional support and proper exercise. Including controlling peripheral neuropathy and peripheral arterial diseases, improving plantar pressure, restoring venous function of lower limbs and other risk factors, avoiding inappropriate shoes and socks and infection.

Trauma, burns

And other inducing factors.
