Neuropathy:

Nerve damage caused by diabetes can lead to numbness, tingling, or loss of feeling in the feet, making it hard to notice injuries.

Blisters:

From even a minor friction, high blood sugar can make the skin to become more fragile. This can lead to painful blisters.

Ulcers:

Often caused by bad circulation and nerve damage. Open wounds or sores on the feet struggle to heal properly.

Calluses:

A thick layer of skin on the feet that is formed by friction or pressure could lead to serious problems for diabetics if not correctly cared for.

Amputations:

Mostly, untreated foot infections or ulcers can lead to the need for amputation to prevent the spread of the disorder.
