Why is amputation more likely for diabetics? Because they’re more likely to get foot ulcers and other foot, arm and extremity wounds, and as a result, undergo amputation procedures in order to avoid further complication - and maybe even death. For many diabetics, amputation becomes an unavoidable treatment for diabetic ulcers that are either chronic or were never given the full attention they needed.

The good news is, in recent years, the rate of lower limb amputations have lessened in the United States, and that’s because people are learning how to prevent them. Now, it’s estimated that around 70,000 diabetics undergo amputation on a foot or leg, each year.
