Foot Osteomyelitis

What is Foot Osteomyelitis?

Foot Osteomyelitis is a severe infection of the bone that can affect individuals with diabetes, particularly when complications arise from foot ulcers. The compromised blood flow and weakened immune response in diabetic patients make them more susceptible to infections, which can lead to the development of osteomyelitis. Timely and expert intervention is crucial to prevent further complications and ensure optimal outcomes.
