DIABETIC FOOT CARE

Diabetic Foot Care

Elite Care for
Diabetic Health.

Diabetes affects roughly 30 million Americans, causing nerve damage and limited circulation that can lead to devastating complications. Even a minor cut can become an emergency when healing is compromised.

At Rainier Foot & Ankle Associates, Dr. Christopher Bock specializes in high-risk diabetic foot management, providing the best treatment in the greater Seattle area to prevent infection and avoid limb loss.

How Diabetes
Affects Your Feet

Diabetes causes glucose to build up in the bloodstream, affecting circulation and nerve function. When glucose levels are not controlled, the feet become vulnerable to nerve damage and slow-healing wounds.

Peripheral Neuropathy

Up to 70% of diabetes sufferers experience nerve damage. This numbness prevents you from feeling cuts, punctures, or extreme temperatures, which often leads to the development of dangerous foot ulcers.

Vascular Compromise

Diabetes narrows and hardens blood vessels, decreasing flow to the extremities. Lack of oxygen-rich blood makes it nearly impossible for the body to fight infections or heal open sores normally.

Don't Wait for Complications
