Comprehensive foot examination and consultation

Comprehensive foot examination and consultation helps in identifying warning signs of neuropathy or preventing the injuries which often go unnoticed due to lack of sensation in the feet

Assessment

Evaluation for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

10gms Semmes Weinstein Monofilament: is used to assess the protective sensation in the feet. Inability to perceive 10gm pressure in the feet is indicative of damage to large nerve fiber resulting in neuropathy
128 Hz tuning fork: is used to assess vibration sense in the feet; alteration in the perception indicates the early sign of neuropathy.
Hot and Cold Perception is a specialized machine that helps in detecting the damage to small nerve fiber which leads to impaired hot and cold perception in the feet. Inability to detect the thermal perception can make the patient at risk of thermal injuries and ulceration.
Biothesiometer is an electrically operated machine that helps in detecting early-stage neuropathy by delivering minute but normally detectable vibration in volts/microns to the feet.

Evaluation for Peripheral Vascular Diseases

Ankle Brachial Index is a powerful noninvasive tool in predicting peripheral vascular disease (or decreased blood supply toward the feet).

Plantar Pressure measurement (Foot Scan)

An electronic Baropedometer helps in detecting the abnormal pressure beneath the feet. High plantar pressure in the weight-bearing areas is a significant risk factor for ulceration, callus formation. This scan also helps in modifying and designing the appropriate footwear.

Anodyne therapy

Anodyne therapy is a noninvasive well advanced and evolving therapy for the management of painful neuropathy and poor circulation. It can be used along with the pills
