Let Advanced Foot, Ankle & Wound Care be your choice for podiatrist in Sterling Heights for all of your foot and ankle needs.

Wound Prevention

Diabetes affects most major body systems including your nervous, immune and circulatory systems. Diabetes can also dramatically affect your feet.

There are ways to prevent diabetic ulcers and other foot wounds. Remember to:

• Wash your feet with warm water and gentle soap and apply moisturizer daily
• Keep your toenails trimmed and clean to prevent ingrown toenails, infections, and nail fungus
• Check your feet daily
• Wear moisture-wicking socks and comfortable shoes and never walk barefoot

Wound Treatment

If you do develop an ulcer or wound, you need to protect it. The goal is to help it heal as quickly as possible and not become infected. You need to:

• Gently remove dead skin or tissue
• Apply topical medications and dressings to protect the wound
• Take the pressure off of your feet by wearing custom footwear, orthotics or wearing a brace

If your diabetic ulcer or wound does become infected it’s time to see your podiatrists at Advanced Foot, Ankle & Wound Care. They may prescribe antibiotics to eliminate infection and provide a variety of soothing treatments including prescription topical medications and bandaging.

The office staff was fantastic! As a new patient, they got me on the same day and provided me with the relief that I needed. I will be referring my friends and family to go see them too!
