diabetes

If you're diabetic and you fail to take your blood sugar levels seriously, sooner -- rather than later -- you're going to have foot problems that could easily lead to amputation. Diabetic foot neuropathy occurs when you are diabetic and you ignore your high blood sugar levels, resulting in blood vessel and nerve damage within your body.

People with Type 2 diabetes are much more likely to develop foot problems than those without it. Type 2 diabetes patients are prone to foot problems because blood vessels and nerves become damaged.
