The Use of Traditional and Complementary Medicine Practices In Diabetic Outpatient Settings: Literature Review

In diabetes, many complications including diabetic foot develop due to insufficient insulin production by the pancreas or inability of the body to use the produced insulin effectively. Medical treatment plays an important role in the healing of diabetic foot wounds. The treatment includes selecting the right antibiotic, surgical interventions, wound debridement, supplying revascularization, reconstruction, wound care, metabolic control, weight relief and negative pressure application. Complementary and alternative medicine applications used for diabetic foot wounds were examined in the present literature review.
