I am type 2 insulin dependant diabetic. I have managed my condition for 10 years now.
However I have recently (in the last year) been subject to a diabetic foot ulcer. It is small and slowly recovering with dressings and fortnightly appointments with an NHS podiatrist.
I am due to fly to the US in 1 month. It will be a 9hr flight. Any tips on how to ensure any swelling is kept to a minimum and how to be kind to my feet. I have purchased some Crocs as heard these can help and are most comfortable when flying rather than wearing trainers.
