Diabetic Foot Care Services

Diabetic Foot Care Services at SND Hospital

A minor foot injury can lead to serious complications for someone with diabetes. At SND Multispeciality Hospital, our specialized foot care unit is dedicated to maintaining your mobility and preventing infections through advanced podiatric care.

1. Complete Foot Examination

Regular check-ups are essential to identify risks you might not feel or see.

  • Our Process: We perform comprehensive assessments, including monofillament testing for nerve sensation and Doppler studies to check blood flow to the extremities.

  • Why it matters: Identifying “at-risk” feet early can reduce the chance of amputation by up to 85%.

2. Diabetic Foot Ulcer Dressing

Non-healing wounds require more than just a bandage; they require specialized medical environments.

  • Specialized Care: We use advanced silver-based dressings, collagen sheets, and off-loading techniques to speed up the healing of chronic ulcers.

  • Infection Control: Our sterile environment ensures that ulcers are debrided and dressed to prevent deep-tissue infections.

3. Nail Care and Callus Management

Common grooming tasks can be dangerous for diabetic patients due to poor healing and reduced sensation.

  • Professional Trimming: We provide safe, medical-grade nail trimming to prevent ingrown nails and fungal infections.

  • Callus Reduction: Thick calluses can create high-pressure spots that turn into ulcers. Our specialists safely debride calluses to redistribute weight across the foot.

4. Foot Care Education & Footwear Advice

Empowering you to care for your feet at home is a core part of our mission.

  • Daily Routine: We teach you exactly what to look for during your daily foot inspections.

  • Proper Footwear: Learn why the right socks and shoes (and avoiding walking barefoot) are your best defense against injury. Our team provides custom advice on therapeutic footwear.
