    Glossary Diabetic Ulcers

    open sores on feet due to diabetes-related complications

    Diabetic ulcers, also known as diabetic foot ulcers, are open sores or wounds that occur in individuals with diabetes, typically on the feet. These ulcers result from a combination of factors such as poor blood circulation, neuropathy (nerve damage), and a weakened immune system, which impair the body's ability to heal. If left untreated, diabetic ulcers can lead to serious complications, including infections and, in severe cases, amputation.
