But Does the Shoe Fit?
Examining the feet is an essential part of care for patients with diabetes. I go one step further-also examine the patient's shoes. I discourage the wearing of pointed-toe shoes that can interfere with circulation and lead to serious foot problems. Instead, I recommend that patients with diabetes wear shoes with wide toe boxes.
