👣 Diabetic Foot Ulcer Treatment – Save Limbs with Expert Care at Asian Vascular Hospitals

Diabetic foot ulcers are one of the most serious and common complications of diabetes. If not treated on time, they can lead to severe infections, gangrene, and even amputation. The good news is, with the right diabetic foot ulcer treatment, most ulcers can be healed, and limbs can be saved.

At Asian Vascular Hospitals, Hyderabad, we specialize in advanced diabetic foot care, combining vascular expertise, wound management, and modern technology to provide the best outcomes for patients.

🔍 What is a Diabetic Foot Ulcer?

A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that usually appears on the bottom of the foot or toes. They develop due to:

• Poor blood circulation (peripheral arterial disease)
• Nerve damage (diabetic neuropathy) leading to loss of sensation
• Uncontrolled blood sugar levels slowing healing
• Foot deformities, pressure, or injuries that go unnoticed

⚠️ Why Early Diabetic Foot Ulcer Treatment is Critical

• Delaying treatment can cause:
• Severe infection and tissue death
• Gangrene, requiring surgical removal
• Limb amputation in advanced cases
• Reduced mobility and quality of life

💡 Fact: Up to 85% of diabetes-related amputations are preventable with timely diabetic foot ulcer treatment.
