Foot Forward in NYC: Advanced Diabetic Wound Care

For diabetics in New York City, a minor foot wound can become a major concern. Advanced diabetic wound care in NYC at Oleg Karpenko Podiatry PC offers a specialized approach to heal wounds effectively and prevent complications.

Unique Challenges for Diabetic Wounds

Diabetic wounds often occur on the feet and lower legs due to nerve damage (neuropathy) and poor circulation. These factors can lead to:

• Unnoticed Injuries: Neuropathy can cause a loss of feeling, allowing injuries to go unnoticed.
• Impeded Healing: Poor circulation hinders the body's ability to deliver oxygen and nutrients needed for healing.

Advanced diabetic wound care in NYC at Oleg Karpenko Podiatry PC goes beyond traditional methods. We offer:

• Expert Diagnosis: Dr. Karpenko conducts a thorough examination to understand the wound's severity and underlying causes.
• Infection Control: Combating infection is critical. We use advanced techniques like debridement (removal of dead tissue) and appropriate antibiotics.
• Pressure Relief: Offloading techniques like specialized footwear or braces reduce pressure on the wound, promoting healing.
• Cutting-Edge Therapies: Depending on the case, we might consider hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) or specialized dressings for optimal healing.
