Why may people with diabetes experience problems with their feet?
In a person with diabetes, sustained high blood glucose levels over a long
period of time can cause damage to the nerve systems in the body, including
those in your feet. 1
neuropad® tests for insuffi cient sweating which is an
early sign of nerve damage, putting feet at risk of
ulceration. The pad starts off blue and should turn
completely pink after 10 minutes' application. If any blue
remains, this indicates that your feet are not producing
enough sweat (anhydrosis) - medically, this is known
as sudomotoric dysfunction. 2
