People with diabetes need to take good care of their feet. Elevated blood sugar levels make a person more prone to foot ulcers than people with normal blood sugar levels. A blister or ulcer can have disasterous consequences. Feet must be kept dry to minimize friction, as well as bacterial and fungal growth. Comfort is also extremely important. Friction from a seam or pressure point inside a shoe can result in a blister. This irritation can often go unnoticed because of neuropathy, a condition affecting a large percentage of diabetics. Bright Life Direct has a large selection of non-compression diabetic socks for you to choose from. SmartKnit Seamless, available in knee, crew, and mini-crew styles have no seams at all and a halo top which prevents irritation on the upper leg. Juzo and Euros Rx have flat knit toe seams and mid-foot compression to prevent bunching. Which ever diabetic sock you choose remember to check the size chart for that specific sock. We want your sock to fit perfectly. That's why Bright Life Direct has a 30-day no questions asked guarantee. |
