Cellulitis and Diabetes

How to Prevent Cellulitis

Proper skin care, with special attention to your feet, is extremely necessary if you have diabetes. This is especially true if your blood sugar level is not managed well. You should see your doctor regularly and request for a thorough foot and leg examination. They may also conduct an ultrasound and may also do a pressure test. As a diabetic, it is necessary that you check your feet every single day. Take note of the appearance of blisters, open skin or corns and inform your doctor immediately.
