Diabetic Foot Can It Be Deadly If You Don't Get It Treated?
My foot is swollen and it's red and it aches and itches so much and it's hard to walk on it at times but I'm seeing my Dr Tuesday about it ,also a yr ago I had a ultrasound sound done on legs and it turned out good but at that time ,my foot was like this,why didn't they check it for pad?
Yes, untreated diabetic foot conditions can be very serious and potentially deadly. Diabetes can cause nerve damage and reduce blood supply to the feet, making it difficult to feel injuries and for those injuries to heal. This can lead to infections, which, if not treated promptly, can result in severe complications Show Full Answer

@A DiabetesTeam Member,gosh,you responded fast!! Thanks going to Dr Tuesday to get it checked out!!
If it Neuropathy and it gets bad enough that there's numbness,sores can lead to amputations. Why I always check my feet every night. My Dr. takes a sharp pointed stick to check and see how far the Neuropathy has gotten. I still have some feeling in my feet and toes. I use a foot spa,with messaging jets. My diabetic shoes keeps me from staggering so bad. Hope this helps you Debra❤
