ABSTRACT
Introduction: The lesions that occur in the foot in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are a consequence of the complications of the disease itself.
Objective: To know the correct approach to the diabetic foot.
Development: They constitute one of the most important sources of morbidity and mortality in the world, especially due to the inadequate control of diabetes mellitus, and the lack of knowledge in the management of foot ulcers. Psychosocial and health situations constitute a factor that affects management and prevention, which in some cases represents a serious cause since the costs for their care are high.
Conclusions: People with diabetes mellitus have a 20-30% higher risk of suffering an amputation than people without diabetes mellitus; this epidemiology represents a serious problem for public health and the economic resources used in health.
