Foot Care
Foot care in prosthetics and orthotics involves several key aspects to ensure the health, comfort, and functionality of the feet and lower limbs for individuals using prosthetic limbs or orthotic devices. It prevents skin problems, promotes comfort, helps avoid complications, and enhances the quality of life.

Diabetic Footwear:
Diabetic footwear is specially designed to meet the needs of individuals with diabetes, focusing on preventing foot injuries and complications. People with diabetes are at higher risk of foot problems due to factors like reduced blood flow, nerve damage, and slower healing.
Modified Footwear:
Modified footwear refers to shoes that have been altered or customised to meet specific medical or functional needs of the wearer. This type of footwear is often used to address particular foot conditions, accommodate deformities, or enhance comfort and support.
