What shoes to wear in the summer for diabetes and what shoes are good for diabetics?

There is a very serious complication of diabetes, that is, diabetic foot, I believe you should also know about it.

Regarding diabetic foot, the prevention and treatment of trauma is very important:

Patients should be instructed not to walk barefoot to prevent puncture wounds; Do not wear slippers when going out to avoid kicking injuries;

Choose shoes that are light and soft, with a wide front end, and socks with cotton wool with good elasticity, breathability and heat dissipation are preferred; Check your shoes daily to remove possible foreign objects and keep the lining flat; For patients with visual impairment, the nails should be trimmed with the help of others, and the nails should not be trimmed too short and should be level with the toes;

Do not use chemical drugs to eliminate corns or calluses, reflect an experienced podiatrist or **physician**, and indicate that you have diabetes; In addition, it is necessary to clean your feet every day, change your shoes and socks frequently, and check yourself every day

One more thing to add——

Diabetic patients are less sensitive to temperature sensation due to peripheral neuropathy, and are easily burned when washing their feet with hot water. Therefore, when soaking your feet, you must avoid the water temperature being too high, not 40. Although it's not winter, you can consider buying a thermometer to measure the water temperature in winter.

Wear comfortable flat or wedge shoes High heels can also be worn Mainly pay attention to the blood circulation of the feet, the complications of diabetes have foot gangrene Mainly caused by poor blood microcirculation Frequent washing of hot feet is conducive to blood circulation Shoes can pay more attention to comfort is more important

It is advisable to consult your primary care physician.

It's not professional here either.

You probably can't believe it.

Diabetics are suitable for wearing the same shoes as ordinary people and can walk on stone roads.

Why do shoes prevent diabetic foot? In fact, shoes can also aggravate ......

Shoes can be said to be an essential piece of equipment for everyone.

A lot of people pay attention to shoes, maybe they pay attention to their brand, they may also pay attention to their performance, their appearance, and so on;

For diabetic foot sufferers, their requirements for shoes will be even more stringent.

Why are diabetic foot shoes important?

This is because people with diabetic foot have lesions and damage to their feet.

In this case, if they wear shoes properly, it can help them lighten the burden;

But if they wear shoes that don't fit them, it will only aggravate the damage to their feet.

According to statistics, about 36% of the reasons why most diabetic foot patients have foot ulcers and amputations are caused by not wearing shoes correctly at the beginning.

In fact, there has always been an absolute correlation about the effect of shoes on diabetic foot:

Diabetic patients will cause vascular and neuropathy due to persistent high blood sugar or repeated blood sugar fluctuations;

Therefore, many diabetic patients' feet feel very weak, and even if they are worn, they will continue to be damaged.

At this time, if the diabetic patient chooses shoes that are not suitable for him, then the shoes he wears are likely to wear and squeeze his feet;

It then leads to wounds or ulcers on the feet, which can easily lead to infection, gangrene, etc., and even more serious lesions, and it is extremely difficult**.

In the early years, Indian scholars published relevant findings in the journal "Diabetes Care", showing that women who regularly wear rubber-soled sneakers to work have a two-fold higher risk, a two-fold increase in wearing rubber loafers, and a four-fold increase in wearing 'trendy shoes'. In multivariate analysis, wearing risky shoes was associated with a doubling risk of minor amputation and a doubling of the risk of high amputation. ”

It can be seen that shoes have a significant impact on diabetic foot, and wearing ill-fitting shoes will not only increase foot injury, but also increase the risk of amputation.

Despite this, there are still many diabetics who misunderstand the requirements of shoes, and they may think that the shoes worn by diabetic feet are comfortable and spacious, and do not oppress the footsteps.

Take slippers as an example, slippers give people a comfortable and spacious feeling, and some diabetics like to wear flip-flops and feel that they don't hurt their feet, which is wrong.

Diabetics should know that flip-flops are best not to wear, as they are easy to cause fatigue damage to the foot muscles and cracks on the outside of the feet.

Because of the influence of diabetic patients on human nerves, diabetic patients are prone to deviations in their perception of the feet, and the pressure distribution on the feet is also very different from that of ordinary people.

Diabetics should wear shoes that are not only loose and comfortable, but also professionally fit and helpful for the feet.

In the future, I will continue to share other knowledge about "diabetes", and I look forward to your attention and support.

You can wear this.

Take care of your mind.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that summer is fire, which corresponds to the heart, and the heart fire is easy to be vigorous in summer, and patients often get angry when they get angry. Therefore, in the scorching summer, diabetic patients should pay attention to mental recuperation. It is required to be refreshed, happy, broad-minded, and full of energy.

When the mind is calm, the internal organs function is coordinated, and the body's metabolism is normal, so as to maintain the relative stability of blood sugar.

Prevent colds and colds.

In the scorching summer, sweating more, the intestines are vented, and it is easy to be attacked by wind, cold and dampness, so it is not advisable to blow the fan directly on the head when sleeping, and it is not suitable to sleep outdoors at night. In air-conditioned rooms, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should not be too large. When enjoying the coolness, do not be under the eaves, in the corridor, and should stay away from the gaps between doors and windows.

You can enjoy the shade under the tree, in the water pavilion, and on the veranda, but not for too long, in case the thief wind invades and catches a cold. Sweating in summer, you should take a shower and change clothes in time after your clothes get wet. If the clothes are wet, it will affect the heat dissipation, and it is easy to catch a cold after returning to the cold, causing a cold and aggravating the condition.

In the middle of summer, taking a warm bath once a day is a fitness measure worth advocating for diabetics. This can not only wash off sweat, make ** refreshing, cool down, but also exercise the body. Because the water pressure and mechanical massage effect of warm water rinsing can reduce the excitability of the nervous system, dilate the blood vessels on the surface of the body, speed up blood circulation, improve the nutrition of skin and tissues, reduce muscle tone, eliminate fatigue, improve sleep, and enhance resistance.

When you don't have the conditions to take a warm bath, you can use a warm towel to wipe your body, which can also play the above role.

Exercise reasonably. In summer, the climate is hot, the amount of exercise is too large, there will be excessive sweating, consumption of qi and yin, patients can appear dizziness and chest tightness, palpitation and thirst, nausea, and even coma, so summer sports should not be too vigorous, and it is best to carry out in the early morning and evening when it is cooler, the venue should choose parks, rivers and lakes, courtyard air fresh, exercise projects to walk, jogging, tai chi, qigong, radio exercises as well, those who have conditions can go to the alpine forest, coastal areas to recuperate.

Get enough sleep. In summer, the days are long, the nights are short, and the heat is unbearable, and often the sleep time can not be guaranteed, so it is best to arrange a certain amount of sleep time after lunch to make up for the lack of sleep at night and maintain a relatively stable metabolism in the body.

In addition, according to the specific condition of diabetic patients, under the premise of syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine should be used for reasonable supplementation. If the patient feels tired and weak, sweats easily, and is deficient in qi, he can take astragalus, ginseng, etc. to replenish qi; If you feel that your thirst is obvious and your tongue is less red, it is a sign of yin deficiency, and you can use raw land, wheat winter, jade bamboo, and radix ginseng to nourish yin; If fatigue and thirst are seen at the same time, it is a deficiency of qi and yin, then it should be replenished and yin should be nourished at the same time.
