Q:

What characteristics ensure a stent does its job?

A:

It is impressive to think that a small piece of metal can keep your artery open after it's implanted. To ensure the stent has staying power, it has to be flexible, yet strong enough to avoid collapsing. Stents are typically made out of metal mesh, although stents made from a fabric mesh may be used in larger arteries if appropriate.

Q:

What is diabetic foot care?

A:

Due to possible foot issues being caused by poor circulation in diabetics, it is very important to follow a good foot care routine. This can include daily checking of your feet for redness or sores, and wearing special diabetic socks. It is also suggested that you stay well hydrated which can help prevent cracking in your skin that can lead to sores. Ask your doctor about what you should be doing to care for your feet if you have diabetes.
