Severe cracks in foot
My moms age is 45. She is a diabetic patient. Now she got more cracks around and inner side of the foot which makes her not able to walk freely. She is using the slippers to walk inside the house. Since she is diabetic patient her wounds are healing and becoming too severe day by day. Can anyone please suggest which doctor I should consult with. What are the remedies we need to take to solve this problem. We have used all Ayurveda and homeopathy treatment but it's of no use. I would really be happy if you suggest a solution for this problem.
