Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease that affects millions of people in the United States. The long term effects of diabetes, especially when uncontrolled, are damage to the eyes, heart, kidneys, nerves, blood vessels and the feet. If you have diabetes, you should visit a podiatrist regularly and you should inspect your feet daily. DrTodds.com carries several diabetic foot care products. For diabetics with neuropathy and dry feet, DrTodds.com offers Diabetiderm and Neuro-Eze, both of which moisturize the skin while helping ease symptoms sometimes associated with diabetes. Dr. Todd's also carries diabetic socks and insoles for your shoes. A self-examination mirror which allows a person to view the bottom of their feet without bending is also a must have for diabetics who have trouble seeing the bottom of their feet. The best way for those with diabetes to keep feet healthy is have regular visits to a podiatrist.
