Diabetes and Wound Care

Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Diabetes affects approximately 170 million people worldwide, including 20.8 million in the USA and by 2030 these numbers are projected to double. Although diabetes has no cure, you can take steps to manage your diabetes and stay healthy. Diabetes makes it harder for the body to heal itself. Because high blood glucose levels affect the body’s ability to heal wounds, people with diabetes are at risk for serious complications.

High blood glucose leads to problems such as: heart disease| stroke| kidney disease| eye problems| dental disease| nerve damage| foot problems
