Diabetic Foot Care in Racine, WI

At Advanced Care Specialists, we offer personalized and compassionate care to each of our patients. We understand that diabetic wounds differ from regular wounds, in that, they tend to heal more slowly and progress more quickly. This makes early intervention critical for diabetic patients, serious injury or illness down the line, as well as to reduce the risk of amputation. The blood glucose imbalances associated with diabetes impair white blood cell function, which is crucial for fighting infections. Without proper white blood cell activity, even minor wounds can become severely infected. Additionally, many people with diabetes suffer from poor circulation, further hindering wound healing. Red blood cells, essential for delivering nutrients to wounds, cannot function effectively when circulation is compromised. This combination of nutrient deficiency and high infection risk makes wound recovery especially difficult for diabetics.
