"Cracking the Code: Dactylitis and Its Diabetic Implications"
Description
In this episode of Diabetic Foot Files, Dr. G delves into the often-overlooked condition of dactylitis, also known as "sausage toe," and its critical implications for limb preservation in diabetic patients. Dactylitis can be an indicator of underlying issues such as osteomyelitis, psoriatic arthritis, or infections, which if left untreated, can lead to serious complications.
Dr. G highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment, especially in diabetic patients who may not perceive pain as a reliable indicator of trouble. The episode also explores various causes, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies for managing dactylitis effectively.
Additionally, listen in for a special segment on Darko Pogo Shoes, a groundbreaking innovation in diabetic foot care, designed to improve comfort and prevent ulcers.
