Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetic Foot Care in Northwest Arkansas

Protect your foundation. Prevent complications. Stay active and safe.

Living with diabetes means your feet deserve more than routine attention — they deserve vigilant care. From subtle changes in skin or sensation to more serious risks like ulcers or infections, your foot health plays a vital role in your mobility, independence, and long-term well-being.

At Arkansas Foot & Ankle Specialists, we take a comprehensive, proactive approach to diabetic foot care — because when you’re managing diabetes, every step counts.

Why Diabetic Foot Care Matters

People living with diabetes face increased risks for foot issues, including:

Reduced nerve sensation (neuropathy)
Poor circulation or impaired blood flow
Skin changes and thickened calluses that can hide early problems
Ulcers, infections, and — if untreated — serious complications

A yearly diabetic foot exam (or more often if you’ve had prior concerns) is essential to catch these issues early and protect your long-term foot health.

Our Comprehensive Care Approach

Step 1: Detailed Assessment

We start with a full foot exam, including checks for:

Nerve sensitivity
Circulation and blood flow
Skin condition and nail health
Joint and muscle function

We also review your diabetes history and lifestyle factors to create a clear picture of your overall foot health.

Step 2: Personalized Management Plan

Your plan may include:

Regular foot evaluations to detect early changes
Callus and skin care to reduce pressure points and prevent ulcers
Footwear guidance for safe, comfortable movement
Education on self-care: daily inspection, hygiene, and protection techniques
Prompt treatment for any wounds, infections, or tissue problems

Step 3: Recovery & Prevention Focus

Our goal is not just treatment — it’s prevention. We help you stay ahead of problems, maintain mobility, and keep your feet strong for the life you want to live.
