What can you do to help Charcot Foot:
If you have a Charcot's foot, following medical advice is important. Charcot's can be very disabling if not managed early and properly. Avoid weightbearing as much as possible.
If you do not have Charcot's but have diabetes and neuropathy (loss of sensation), the risk of developing it increases. Avoid putting yourself in situations that may lead to trauma. Check your feet frequently for any swelling. Do not wait, seek professional help urgently if you notice any. The 'wait a couple of days to see what happens' could mean the difference between a good and poor outcome."...
