Know the signs. Act early.
Protect your limbs.
Understanding your condition is the first step to protecting your feet, your health, and your independence.
Circulation‑related conditions
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD)
A common condition where narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to your legs and feet, increasing the risk of wounds and infections.

Critical limb ischaemia
This is a severe form of PAD where blood flow is so poor that pain, ulcers, or gangrene can develop. It often needs urgent treatment.

Ischaemic foot (poor circulation)
When blood can’t reach parts of the foot properly, it becomes harder for wounds to heal and infections to clear.
See how we help treat circulation problems
Tissue loss caused by reduced blood flow
Lack of circulation can lead to parts of the skin and tissue dying, often starting with toes or pressure areas.

Wound‑related conditions
Diabetic foot ulcers
Open wounds on the foot that often start small but can become serious if not treated early, especially in people with diabetes.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Chronic, non-healing wounds
Wounds that don’t improve over time may need specialised care to prevent infection and reduce the risk of complications.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Post‑amputation wound complications
Sometimes wounds from previous amputations heal poorly or reopen, especially if pressure or circulation issues are present.
See our surgical foot treatments
Venous leg ulcers
These ulcers usually occur around the ankles when poor vein function causes fluid build-up and skin breakdown.
See our wound care approach
Soft tissue infections of the foot or leg
Infections can develop quickly in wounds, especially in people with diabetes or poor circulation, and may need urgent care.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Gangrene
Gangrene happens when tissue dies, usually due to a lack of blood flow. It requires prompt treatment to avoid limb loss.

Diabetes‑related foot problems
Diabetic foot ulcers
These often begin from a small injury or pressure point and may go unnoticed due to reduced feeling in the feet.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Charcot foot
A serious complication of diabetes where weakened bones and joints cause the foot to change shape and collapse.
See how we help support wound healing
Neuropathy‑related foot problems
Nerve damage from diabetes can cause numbness or tingling in the feet, making injuries easy to miss.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Foot deformities due to diabetes or previous surgery
Changes in foot shape can lead to pressure points that increase the risk of ulcers and slow healing.
See our surgical offloading options
Infection‑related complications
Infected foot wounds
Wounds can become infected when bacteria enter broken skin. These infections may spread quickly and require urgent treatment.
See our diabetic foot treatments
Limb‑threatening infections
When infection is severe or deep, it can damage tissues and bone. Early care can make the difference between saving or losing a limb.
