SMART SOCKS
May 7, 2025
- Wear clean socks every day
- Keep your feet warm by wearing socks in shoes and slippers, avoid heating pads and hot water on feet
- Keep your feet dry, choosing socks with mostly cotton or a moisture wicking material
- Wear socks with no in-seams, holes or mends
- Socks should not leave marks on skin or have tight elastic bands
- Choose socks that fit comfortably, are light coloured, that do not have a top elastic band and any seams are on the outside
Good diabetes sock should still feel good when you take them off at the end of the day
