Foot Health Week ๐ฃ
Clare from our High Risk Foot Team says:
"Applying daily foot cream to your feet is a vital part of ensuring your feet stay hydrated & prevent any painful cracks to the skin"
Try a urea based cream on persistently dry areas

Christine from our community podiatry team advises "get your feet measured!"
Why is this important?
Shoes need to fit properly to avoid rubbing and causing blistering this is particularly important if you have loss of feeling due to diabetes.
