Anatomy of a Diabetic Foot

Written By Jo Anne V. Coruña

At least 1 in 5 patients with diabetes will develop a foot ulcer in their lifetime. Diabetic foot ulcers are open wounds or sores that can lead to infection if not treated early. Aside from ulcers, patients may suffer from other conditions affecting their feet.

This awareness campaign is brought to you by the Coruña Foot and Ankle Institute (CFAI). Seek medical advice only from qualified healthcare professionals. This material is strictly for educational purposes only. CFAI is managed by an orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon in the Philippines based in Bacolod City.
