Diabetic foot: understand the dangers of the condition and how to prevent it

Diabetic foot is a silent complication that can lead to amputation. In the video, vascular surgeon Andréa Klepacz warns that this is one of the most serious risks of poorly controlled diabetes.

Prevention begins with strict control of the disease and simple daily care, such as protecting the feet and avoiding minor trauma. Watch and understand why early attention can make all the difference.
