Today is World Diabetes Day, so let’s talk about something you might not always think about - your feet!

Diabetes can sneak up on your feet with reduced sensation and circulation, meaning even small cuts or pressure points can turn into big problems if ignored.

With daily care and the right support, most diabetic foot complications are preventable. Custom orthotics and diabetic-friendly shoes can relieve pressure and protect those sensitive feet from blisters or ulcers.

If you or a loved one lives with diabetes, make foot checks a daily habit and give your feet the support they need. 💙

When I used to work long shifts on my feet, I’d get home and just want to elevate my legs and not move for an hour.

If you know that same "heavy leg" feeling, here are a few quick solutions that really help:

1️⃣ - Move or stretch regularly and take short breaks so your muscles stay loose and your circulation keeps flowing.

2️⃣ - When you rest, elevate your feet to reduce swelling (and remember to stay hydrated to help circulation).

3️⃣ - Compression socks can also gently boost blood flow and prevent that "heavy-leg" feeling by reducing swelling.

4️⃣ - And, don’t overlook good support in your footwear! Proper arch support keeps your body aligned, easing pressure on your legs and feet.

Little changes can add up! 😊 Read more in our article:
