Description
Diabetic socks specifically designed to keep the feet dry, decrease the risk of foot injury, and avoid preventing or slowing blood circulation.\nThey usually are made of materials that have superior abilities to wick away moisture, are fitted, padded, and nonbinding.\nThey differ from regular socks in that they are non-elastic and seamless. By eliminating the elastic, diabetic socks reduce the constriction that often occurs in swelling, which can limit blood flow.\nDiabetic socks may be helpful in the following conditions:\nIf you have diabetes and have experienced changes in foot color, temperature, redness, irritation, nerve damage or blisters.\nIf you have diabetes and have extreme foot moisture or sweat, as these specialized socks keep your feet dry by wicking moisture and thereby reducing the recurrence of infections.\nIf you are currently pregnant and have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes, specialized socks may help prevent blood clots in swollen feet.\nIf you have diabetes and are traveling long distances and will be seated for a long time in a vehicle, these socks can help promote proper circulation and reduce pressure while you\'re on the go.\nSensitive skin types are well looked after by the fabric made from viscose bamboo. The eco-friendly fibers are more gentle than many manmade fibers and do not irritate the skin in the same way. Better still, the bamboo is 100% organically grown, so there are no traces of impurities close to your skin.
