Neuroischaemic Foot Ulcers

These are usually encountered on the margins of ones feet. They are caused due to the friction between the foot and the shoes, we wear. They can also be encountered at the tips of your toes or beneath toe nails, especially the ones that are thick. Their development is characterized by the redness of skin in those areas. This red mark then develops into a blister/ulcer.

Both of the above can lead to the loss of a person's toes or the entire foot, unless they are properly treated at the initial stage.
