Different clinical methods are being practiced for Diabetic foot care. Success ratio, recurrence and failure rates are different at their levels. This question is to discuss important points in light of both AYUSH and Modern Medical Science in benefit of science and community.
In my experience, ozone therapy makes a clear difference in diabetic Foot Infection and ulcer treatment. You can see various papers, but an interesting one was published recently by Izadi where he achives 100% resolution of ulcers and 1/3 of amputation on amnsix month treatment.
I am also aweare that Vitamin D megadosis can positivelly affect Diabetic foot treatment.
There are evidence based case reports and studies showed the efficacy of Homoeopathic medicines in the 96-percent resolution of diabetic foot ulcer, thus preventing amputations. There are published in various peer reviewed journals as IJRH, AJHM
I am again elaborating the question further.
Many AYUSH and modern medicaments are there in practice. Focusing towards the pathology, there are three main factors contributing occurance of DFU. They are ischemia, neuropathy and infection.
Understanding to it's pathology, what should we include principlly to combat the condition??

Dear Dr. Ponnam, could you please send me the references of the papers you mention ( resulition of diabetic foot with homeopathy), so I can see them?
Thank You in advance for your help
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in China have spectacular results by treating diabetic foot. They were developed different herbal creams which are accepted by Chinese Food and Drug Administration and they are used in hospitals in China. The most terrible wounds can be treated by that medicines with great success. I saw it in Shanghai in Shuguang Hospital during my workshop at Shanghai TCM University.
Thank you @Dr Marek Kalmus. Share the link /photos/ published articles on those protocols for Diabetic foot ulcers management are available
Have a look at this study and see if you can find it... Article Effects of a Tendo-Achilles Lengthening Procedure on Muscle ...
The issue contributing to diabetic foot ulcers is metatarsal pressure. A true assessment of surgical intervention is the barefoot side by side comparison. This resulted in a 14% reduction in forefoot pressure. ...now... proceed very carefully and ask yourself "What's the only difference between the 14% barefoot and the 55% in-shoe pressure reduction?"
Is it the shoe? No. In a pair of Vans or Converse, it would have been the same...
It's heel rise. A simple heel lift provided nearly 300% greater pressure reduction than a surgical intervention.
Why? The answer is simple for those with eyes to see. Diabetics have 10 degrees less dorsiflexion compared to non-diabetics. Additionally, gastroc has a shorter functional range, 15 degrees less dorsiflexion and 21 degrees less plantarflexion.
By providing something as simple as a heel lift bilaterally, one can externally delay the onset of unwanted/unintentional achilles tension that results from reaching end-range ankle ROM.
