Common underlying causes of diabetic foot complications include:
-
- Inadequate glycemic control
- Presence of calluses
- Foot deformities
- Inadequate foot care practices
- Wearing ill-fitting footwear
- Underlying peripheral neuropathy
- Poor blood circulation
- Dry skin
Approximately 60% of individuals with diabetes will eventually develop neuropathy, which can progress and lead to the formation of foot ulcers.
