REAL-LIFE STORY - HOW DIABETIC SHOES IMPROVED FOOT HEALTH

After delivering a revolutionary product that stands on its words, diabetic shoes are gaining pace in the Indian market amidst rising awareness and therapeutic benefits of the shoes. One such testimonial is from a 35-year-old man, Mr. Puneet Pacchel, a resident of Nagpur, Maharashtra who is employed at the local government hospital as an associate professor. Dr. Puneet is an attending junior resident of the ophthalmology department at the local hospital who, despite being a healthcare professional, has fallen into the firm grip of diabetes. “I was diagnosed with diabetes during my first year of post-graduation itself. Despite being aware of lifestyle patterns that pave the way for diabetes, I continued to ignore those signs only to be found in an alarming state of the condition, the return from where was impossible” quoted Dr Puneet.  “The busy lifestyle of the doctors and generic way of eating with higher carbohydrate intake than protein, fiber, and roughage, I too have fallen prey to the predator”, he added.  


As a resident at the state-run hospital, the work of Dr Puneet involves a lot of running and walking from one ward to another taking rounds and during OPDs to take the medical history of the patients. Though the blood sugar levels are under control both pre and post-meal, he still has adopted certain changes in his mundane routine and incorporated elements that are not only beneficial for spiked blood sugar but also for his overall health. “I have started monitoring my sugar regularly while also cutting down on carbs. My meal now involves more leafy vegetables than ever, and I have switched to natural sugar rather than refined sugar when I crave excessively for something sweet” were his words as he munched on Arabian dates. 


While all was going well and he was sure of leading a healthy lifestyle amidst the conundrum of sugar levels, something was constantly lurking in the subconscious mind of the educated medical resident, bruises and abrasions from the footwear due to more than usual walking and running while taking care of those admitted under his care. “Due to a busy schedule and long working hours, taking care of oneself becomes a tad tedious in the medical fraternity especially and the irony is that we know the grave consequences of unchecked feet. One day while bathing, I noticed a rash and applied soframycin to impede the infection, many days later the rash was unhealed despite daily application of the ointment. It was when I decided to start surfing the internet for reliable footwear for my diabetic feet since I realized that my ignorance has caused this and to avoid future rashes and bruises, my feet are claiming their rightful share of my stipend. After days of search and consultation from various medical representatives, I landed at diabetic shoes and immediately ordered a pair befitting my size.” he shared. Further, he told us that it was difficult for him initially to ditch the expensive shoes that he purchased out of his knack for collecting high-end footwear from celebrated brands but later acclimatized for the sake of his health. 


“I am no podiatrist, but I was capable of telling the difference as soon as I slid into that footwear. The arch support was just, cushioned padding ensured smooth interior, adjustable straps compensated the fitting, and design too looked premium which was befitting of my role as a doctor” were the statements of Dr Puneet. The shoes have left room for the doctor to focus more on his patients since now he no longer has to worry about the abrasions from the poorly maintained interior of the expensive shoes that he has been using in the past. Diabetic shoes have taken proper care of his feet which were severely ignored in the past. “I have become an ardent user of these shoes and since it looks a little awkward to wear the same shoes to work every day, I have ordered a couple of different footwear too for which I thank the conglomerate for their plethora of designs at really affordable cost,” said Dr Pachhel. 


Under his own observation of his feet, he has not only noticed zero rash or bruises but also acknowledged and complimented the comfort offered by therapeutic shoes that have enabled him to work as efficiently as he did in his early twenties.
