A heel ulcer is an open sore that develops on the skin of the heel, typically as a result of prolonged pressure or friction on the area. Heel ulcers can be painful and may take a long time to heal, especially in individuals with poor circulation or diabetes. There are several factors that can contribute to the development of a heel ulcer, including: Prolonged pressure on the heel due to immobility or sitting or lying down for extended periods of time Friction from ill-fitting shoes or socks Poor circulation, which can lead to slow healing and an increased risk of infection Diabetes, which can cause nerve damage and reduce sensation in the feet, making it more difficult to detect and treat ulcers Treatment for a heel ulcer typically involves relieving pressure on the affected area and keeping the wound clean and protected. This may involve the use of specialized dressings, pressure-relieving devices, and wound care techniques. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to remove damaged tissue or correct underlying structural problems in the foot or ankle. Prevention is key in avoiding heel ulcers. This can involve regular foot inspections, wearing well-fitting shoes, and maintaining good blood sugar control in individuals with diabetes.

Charcot foot, which is a condition that affects the bones in the foot and ankle and often leads to joint deformities and instability, specialized insoles can be crucial in providing support and preventing further damage. Here are a few types of insoles that might be used: Custom Orthotics: These are specially designed to match the unique contours of your feet. They help distribute pressure evenly, stabilize the foot, and prevent further deformities. A podiatrist or orthotist can create these based on a detailed assessment of your foot structure and needs. Offloading Insoles: These are designed to reduce pressure on specific areas of the foot. For Charcot foot, offloading insoles can help redistribute pressure away from the affected areas to help prevent ulcers and further complications. Rocker Sole Insoles: Rocker soles have a rounded heel-to-toe transition which can help reduce stress on the foot while walking. This can be particularly helpful for individuals with Charcot foot to improve gait and reduce discomfort. Cushioned Insoles: Providing additional cushioning can help absorb shock and reduce the impact on the foot. This can be beneficial if you experience pain or discomfort due to Charcot foot. Rigid Insoles: Sometimes, a more rigid insole is needed to offer strong support and prevent excessive movement of the foot, which can be helpful in managing the condition and preventing further deformity.

Forefoot ulcers can be painful and may take a long time to heal, especially in individuals with poor circulation or diabetes. There are several factors that can contribute to the development of a forefoot ulcer, including: Prolonged pressure on the ball of the foot due to standing or walking for extended periods of time Friction from ill-fitting shoes or socks Poor circulation, which can lead to slow healing and an increased risk of infection Diabetes, which can cause nerve damage and reduce sensation in the feet, making it more difficult to detect and treat ulcers Treatment for a forefoot ulcer typically involves relieving pressure on the affected area and keeping the wound clean and protected.

NORMAL DIABETIC SHOE: Price range 4500 to 6800 plus GST 1) Diabetic shoes decrease the risk of diabetic foot ulcers and thereby reduce amputations. They provide support and protection while minimizing pressure points on the feet. They also have extra depth to accommodate diabetic inserts. There are many styles to choose from, and the shoes look much like any other shoe. 2) Diabetic shoes are often wider and deeper than regular shoes to accommodate a special multi-density insert that is designed to reduce pressure and callouses to the bottom of feet. Diabetic shoes have a larger “toe box” to prevent squeezing of the toes.

Walking Aid

A walking aid is a device designed to assist individuals with mobility issues in walking or maintaining balance. It provides additional support and stability, improving the user's confidence and reducing the risk of falls. Here are some common types of walking aids: Canes: Canes are the simplest walking aids and provide basic support. They come in various designs, such as single-point canes, quad canes (with four points), or offset canes. Canes are suitable for individuals who require minimal assistance or stability. Crutches: Crutches are typically used when one leg is injured or unable to bear weight. They come in two types: underarm crutches and forearm crutches. Underarm crutches extend under the arms, while forearm crutches have cuffs that wrap around the forearm. Crutches require good upper body strength and coordination to use effectively. Walkers: Walkers are sturdy frames with four legs that provide excellent stability. They are ideal for individuals who need substantial support or have difficulty maintaining balance. Walkers can be further classified into standard walkers, wheeled walkers, and rollators. Rollators have wheels and brakes, providing more mobility and maneuverability. Walking Frames: Walking frames are similar to walkers but typically have two wheels at the front. They offer stability and support while walking and are suitable for individuals who need assistance but have better balance than those requiring a walker. Knee Walkers/Scooters: Knee walkers or scooters are alternatives to crutches for individuals with lower leg injuries or surgeries. They have a padded knee rest and wheels, allowing the user to propel themselves forward while keeping the injured leg elevated. The choice of walking aid depends on the individual's specific needs, abilities, and the nature of their mobility issues. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional, such as a physiotherapist or doctor, who can assess the user's condition and recommend the most appropriate walking aid for them.

Orthotic

Safety Stride KAFO  The SafetyStride is a mechanical stance control orthotic knee joint that utilizes a low-profile cabling system to automatically unlock itself at the end of stance phase. The key feature of the SafetyStride is its ability to resist knee flexion at any angle. The SafetyStride does not require full 180° knee extension to resist knee flexion in stance phase. Designed to unlock at terminal stance, an internal lever re-engages during swing phase to ensure knee joint stability prior to heel contact. Individuals who intermittently fail to reach full extension will now have the added security and stability they require while ambulating. The SafetyStride works in conjunction with the FullStride and can be easily installed on a FullStride equipped KAFO.  It give more natural Gait  If we add a Pneumatic cylinder it will assit the quadriceps muscle and patient feel more comfortable.

Neurotronic KAFO  The Neurotronic knee joint system is a sophisticated electro mechanical knee control component designed specifically for people with knee extensor weakness, knee instability or loss of knee control and sets the benchmark for this class of limb control technology.  The Neurotronic is incorporated into a discreet lightweight carbon frame, locking automatically in stance phase and free moving in swing phase. In stance phase, the Neurotronic stabilises the knee in any position to enable the user to safely load the effected limb even when the knee joint is flexed or bent. During swing phase, the Neurotronic allows the knee to move freely to achieve a natural gait pattern without the compensations seen with conventional designs.  The electromechanical knee joint system is controlled either by a pressure sensor under the foot piece or by motion sensors integrated in the controller. The control mechanism incorporates an inclinometer and accelerometer motion sensors that detect the movement and position of the lower leg.  When standing with the orthosis or just before heel strike, the motion sensors lock the Neurotronic system knee joint. The motion detection is sensitive to speed and the joint will lock regardless of length and speed of steps and regardless of a hill gradient.
