While not all diabetics are required to wear diabetic socks, people with diabetes are more prone to foot injuries and infections because of damage to their circulatory and nervous systems and even their immune system. Diabetic socks are designed to prevent the dangerous and deleterious consequences that can develop as a result of these medical conditions. For example, nerve damage (or neuropathy) results in decreased sensation and increased risk of injury. Circulatory problems slow down the body’s ability to heal and high blood sugar levels compromise the body’s immune system. All of these medical conditions can result in greater risk of injury and infection to the feet, and diabetic socks address these conditions specifically. What are diabetic socks?

Insertional Achilles tendonitis affects the lower portion of the Achilles tendon, where it attaches to the heel. Small tears and swelling are typical of this type of Achilles tendonitis and it is common in people with a Haglund’s deformity, a foot condition where the back of the heel is prominent, which causes irritation to the tendon. Non-insertional Achilles tendonitis is characterized by pain and inflammation of the middle portion of the Achilles tendon. It can result in degeneration of the tissue due to stress and pull of the tendon. Non-insertional Achilles tendonitis is more commonly seen in young, active people. What c...
