What Conservative Treatment Works Best For Treating Foot Ulcer’s?
Your doctor suggests treating your ulcer with:
01 RESTING YOUR FEET
02 WEARING ORTHOTIC SHOES OR BRACES
03 REMOVING DEAD SKIN AT OUR CLINIC
04 X-RAY | ANTIBIOTICS
Your doctor may request an X-ray to check for bone infections or send some samples of your skin cells to the lab. The lab determines if an antibiotic will help fight your infection.

Seeing a podiatrist regularly will help you spot a foot ulcer before it becomes infected.
