Diabetic Foot Surgery

Diabetic foot surgery involves medical procedures to treat serious foot problems caused by diabetes, such as infections, ulcers, or deformities. High blood sugar levels can damage nerves and blood vessels in the feet, leading to complications. Podiatric surgeons assess the foot's condition and may perform surgeries to remove infected tissue, correct bone deformities, or improve blood flow. The goal is to relieve pain, heal wounds, and prevent further complications like amputations, ultimately improving the patient's quality of life and maintaining foot health. Early intervention and proper foot care are crucial for those with diabetes.
