Proper Management & Care of Diabetic Wounds
Severe Infection Risk
People with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing wounds, especially in the feet. These wounds, often called diabetic foot ulcers, are due to a combination of poor circulation, nerve damage, and weakened immune system often associated with diabetes. Left untreated, these wounds can lead to severe infections and, in extreme cases, may require amputation.
Special Attention & Advanced Treatments
Diabetic wounds need extra care and attention. A minor cut or scrape can quickly turn into a serious medical problem if it becomes infected. Early treatment, thorough cleaning, and protection of the wound from contamination are crucial for effective healing.
Our powerful wound cream is designed specifically for this purpose. It not only promotes faster healing, but also protects against common pathogenic organisms that can cause infections.

Some of the most common Diabetic wounds and skin conditions
Diabetic Foot Ulcers
The most common wounds in people with diabetes often occur on the bottom of the foot and can become serious if not treated promptly. They're typically caused by poor circulation, nerve damage, and pressure points on the foot.
Neuropathic Ulcers
Ulcers where nerve damage leads to loss of sensation, typically in the feet. This means injuries may go unnoticed and untreated, leading to ulcers.
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Ulcers
PAD causes narrowed or blocked blood vessels in the legs, is more common in people with diabetes. This can lead to skin ulcers due to decreased blood flow.
Charcot Foot
A serious condition that involves weakening of the bones in the foot that can lead to deformities and wounds.
Skin Infections
People with diabetes are more susceptible to various types of skin infections, such as bacterial infections (like staphylococcus), fungal infections (like Candida), and other types of infections. These can lead to wounds if not properly treated.
Necrobiosis Lipoidica Diabeticorum (NLD)
Rare skin condition where spots similar to ulcers appear on the skin. They are often red, raised, and can be itchy and painful.
Blisters (Bullosis Diabeticorum):
Blisters that resemble burn blisters. These blisters—also referred to as diabetic blisters—can occur on the fingers, hands, toes, feet, legs, or forearms.
Digital Sclerosis:
In this condition, the skin on the toes or fingers becomes thick and waxy, often developing open sores.
