DIABETIC SOCKS – COMFORT AND PROTECTION

Proper supportive socks can help prevent blood collecting in the feet and lower legs which can lead to an infection in the diabetic. Diabetic socks help cushion the feet and protect them from rubbing on the inside of the shoes and can therefore help prevent pressure ulcers and blisters. The socks are seamless which help prevent friction injuries as well. They also absorb moisture and keep feet warm which helps prevent fungal infections and encourages good circulation. Diabetic socks also provide firm support to the lower leg. Diabetic socks should be thick and well padded to help cushion the foot from pressure ulcers and prevent friction from shoes.
Because of the common loss of sensation in the feet with diabetes, damage caused by friction from socks or shoes may not be noticed until and actual injury is caused.
