Abstract
Diabetes is a disorder of metabolism. Diabetic foot ulcer is one of the major complications of diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder which slows down the wound healing process. Many studies show a prolonged inflammatory phase in diabetic wounds, which causes a delay in the formation of granulation tissue and reduction in wound tensile strength. Diabetic ulcers form due to a combination of factors, such as increased body weight, numbness of the foot, poor circulation, irritation, and trauma. Ulcers often progress to infections of the surrounding tissue, osteomyelitis, and amputation.
