Description
A small crack in the skin doesn't seem like a big deal... until diabetes changes everything.
In today's video, Dr. Nail Nipper treats a patient with diabetes who developed a foot wound that appeared within just a few weeks. Because diabetic neuropathy can reduce feeling in the feet, even a tiny blister, crack, or splinter can quickly become a serious problem.
Watch as Dr. Sperling carefully removes the surrounding callus, evaluates the wound, discusses treatment options, and explains why checking your feet every day could save your toe—or even your leg.
This is Part 1 of a diabetic wound journey.
