‘NIROGI’ FOOTWEAR COLLECTION
FROM DSI ENSURES A SAFE, HEALTHIER AND COMFORTABLE FUTURE

If inflicted, and uncontrolled, it could take away years of a patients life; years that could be spent in perfect health with the ones that matter. Diabetes is a silent killer, and most of the time the patient isn’t even aware of infliction. High sugar concentrations damage blood vessels, and nerves which transfer to the brain can potential die out. Once these nerves fail to respond to stimuli, it causes neuropathy.
Neuropathy slows down the recovery of wounds, even if it is a mundane cut. Therefore a patient should remain wary of every potential injury which they can receive, in each part of the body. That is where the importance of footwear comes under the spotlight. The use of some footwear runs the risk of causing minor cuts, if worn in an improper manner, or when the shoes gets damp.
