Diabetic Wounds

Ms. Mok (aged 54), has medical history of diabetes mellitus. A small pack of coins fell on Ms. Mok's 2nd toe and left an open wound. Her job as a bank teller required prolonged standing in tight leather shoes. As a result, her 2nd toe swelled quickly that urged her to go to the hospital A&E. The doctor suggested toe amputation and even more, foot amputation.

Shocked, Ms. Mok refused to have her foot amputated. Shortly after, she reached Nu Pro Nurse Centre for help. With specialized wound care service, advanced dressings & equipment and tailored medical shoes, the patient's wound had remarkable healing progress. In 24 days, the wound healed up satisfactorily. No more amputation is required.
