Diabetic Foot Check: Warning Signs You Should Not Ignore
A small blister or callus can become a bigger problem when diabetes affects feeling, circulation, or healing.
What to look for
Check the soles, heels, between toes, nail edges, and pressure spots. Use a mirror or ask for help if needed.
Why small changes matter
Reduced feeling can make a blister, callus, or cut easy to miss. Early care can reduce the chance of a larger wound problem.
When to call
Call for wounds, drainage, spreading redness, swelling, color change, new numbness, or a callus that looks different.
