==Overview==
{{SK}} Diabetic feet; Diabetic ulcer; Diabetic foot infection; Diabetic foot ulcer; Diabetic foot syndrome
1 in every 4 patients with [[diabetes]] develops complications. The pathogenesis of diabetics foot is due to two causes i.e. neuropathy and [[vasculopathy]]. Due to [[neuropathy]] the patient loses sensation whereas, vasculopathy causes poor blood supply to the foot region. Due to both these contributing factors, even a small trauma to the feet can give rise to ulcer or gangrene and may even require amputation. Thus, foot examination by a podiatrist or a doctor is recommended every year.


==Diabetic Foot Physical Examination==
==[[Diabetic foot overview|Overview]]==
===Inspection===
* Dilated veins
* Scar, Sinuses
* Shiny skin
* Hair distribution
* Areas of Pigmentation
* Areas of discolouration
* Varicose vein
* Ulcers
* Brittle or broken nail
* Fungal infection
===Palpation===
* Temperature (increase temperature- deep vein thrombosis, decrease temperature-ischemia)
* Tenderness (squeeze calf muscle and achilles tendon for tenderness)
* Pulsation- Dorsalis pedis
* Capillary filling time
* Ulcers in pressure areas like ball of great toe, base of fifth metatarsal, posterior aspect of heel
===Motor examination===
* Nutrition/Bulk
* Tone
* Power
* Reflexes
===Sensory===
* Vibration
* Joint position sense
