Home / Conditions / Diabetic foot care
If you have diabetes, the nerves in your feet may not warn you when something is wrong. A small injury you cannot feel is how most serious foot problems begin — and daily looking prevents them.
A diabetic foot problem is never something to watch for a week.
A painless wound on a diabetic foot is MORE serious, not less.
The absence of pain means the nerves are damaged — which is exactly why it will be walked on and why it will get worse. Never use pain as your guide here.
We say "in remission", not "cured".
A foot that has ulcerated once is at high risk of doing so again. The daily checks and the footwear continue for life.
In your case, yes — and this is the exception.
We advise against custom insoles for most foot pain. But for a diabetic foot with previous ulceration or deformity, proper therapeutic footwear genuinely prevents recurrence, and it is worth every rupee.
Pictures, how many and how often, and what it should feel like. Free, and printable.
In your language, free to download. Each one is a short PDF you can keep on your phone or print.
On cost: if we suggest a scan, an injection or an operation, ask us what it costs and what happens if you do nothing. We will answer both. You should never feel pushed into spending money.
Consultation is ₹500 for a first visit and ₹300 for a follow-up, the same at both clinics. For anything else, ask at the desk or on WhatsApp before it is done — we will tell you the exact cost.
A page is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If the pain is not settling, come in and have it looked at properly — bring any X-ray, MRI or CT films you already have.
