Diabetes and Your Feet

Diabetes causes nerve damage and reduced circulation that can be hazardous to your feet. Deterioration of your peripheral nerves (Doctors call it neuropathy. ) reduces sensation in your extremities, so you may not feel it when you hurt your feet. Poor blood circulation can also make it difficult for foot injuries and infections to heal. That s why even a small bump or cut can result in serious consequences if it goes without timely medical attention.

Well-made, properly fitting footwear can help you avoid complications associated with diabetes, including unnecessary amputations. Dr. Comfort offers a complete footwear system for men and women with diabetes.

Our shoes feature full-leather linings, except the athletic models that utilize a cotton lining.

How can I minimize heel slippage?

The best way to minimize heel slippage is to wear a lace-up shoe. Different lacing techniques can help reduce heel slippage. If a Velcro closure is your only option, placing a tongue pad under the tongue of the shoe will reduce heel slippage.

Dr. Comfort does not recommend the use of heel grippers, especially for people with diabetes.

Dr. Comfort's gel insert is made of a proprietary base material with gel in the heel and metatarsal areas, a middle layer of p-cell and a leather-like top cover. Our Medicare-reviewed inserts (heat-moldable and custom) are made according to A5512 specifications using an EVA base and p-cell cover.

What makes Dr. Comfort socks different?
