A basic, yet extremely important part of diabetes self-care is taking care of your feet. Having diabetes means that you’re at risk of developing foot problems, such as loss of sensation in your feet or decreased blood flow to your legs and feet. A minor cut, sore, or blister can quickly escalate into a serious problem, raising the chances of losing a toe, foot, or leg.
Along with checking your feet every day for cuts or sores that aren’t healing, warmth, redness, swelling, or any other changes, equally as important is wearing shoes and socks that fit right and protect your feet. If you currently have any foot problems, or if you’ve had them in the past, it’s a smart idea to wear socks geared for diabetes (also known as “diabetic socks”). Yomandamor Bamboo Diabetic Socks are made from a combination of bamboo and elastane — materials that wick away moisture, are wrinkle-resistant (which means less chance of chafing or abrasion), and are free from seams. Bamboo also has anti-microbial properties, preventing bacterial and fungal infections, and minimizing foot odor. These socks are comfy, too, with extra cushioning and a non-binding top that stays up.
Yomandamor Bamboo Diabetic Socks are available for both women and men, and come in a variety of sizes and styles, including ankle, low-cut, crew, and knee-high styles. Whether you’re relaxing at home or out and about, Yomandamor bamboo diabetic socks will keep your feet safe and healthy.
