Diabetic Foot: Understanding Foot Care Needs
Diabetes can affect the nerves and blood flow in your feet. Changes in feeling or circulation can make injuries harder to notice and slower to heal, so foot care needs individual professional guidance.
Why Does Foot Care Matter?
Reduced sensation can mean that rubbing, a blister, or a small wound is not painful. A lack of pain does not show that a foot problem is harmless.
Check your feet daily and attend the foot checks recommended by your healthcare team. New wounds, redness, warmth, swelling, discharge, or a change in colour need prompt medical attention.

Insoles and Professional Foot Care
A clinician may recommend particular footwear or insoles after assessing sensation, circulation, skin, and pressure risk. Some people need specialist therapeutic footwear or treatment that takes pressure off an affected area.
Insole 3D uses foot measurements to inform a personalized 3D-printed design. This process does not assess diabetic foot risk or establish suitability for ulcer prevention or treatment. Ask your foot-care team before choosing or changing insoles.

Review our product information with your foot-care professional to discuss whether the design is appropriate for your needs.
Contact your diabetes or foot-care team promptly about any new foot problem, even without pain. Keep using prescribed footwear and insoles unless your treating clinician advises a change.
