peclavus PODOdiabetic: relieving care for sensitive feet

Feet that are pre-stressed thanks to various medical conditions react much more sensitively to external irritations and insufficient care. The RUCK product range PODOdiabetic from our own brand peclavus is specially designed for those who suffer from diabetes, neurodermatitis, psoriasis and other skin complaints.

That is why the subject of podiatry for diabetics has a special status

Diabetics have to be more attentive to pressure marks, calluses and other foot problems, because a diabetic foot is exposed to a significantly higher health risk than a healthy one. Even minor injuries carry a not inconsiderable risk potential. This is mainly due to the fact that wound healing is severely limited in diabetic patients, along with insufficient blood circulation, damaged nerves and altered skin structure.

This makes it all the more important for people affected by diabetes to take extreme care with their podiatry. Professional podiatrists and beauty foot care professionals will find peclavus PODOdiabetic products at RUCK that are specially conjured up for these problems.

Care products with the power of nature

  • various fruit and plant extracts

  • important essential oils

  • MicroSilver BG with antibacterial effect

  • Active ingredients from the body

With you, chemically produced dyes and fragrances are avoided, as are questionable parabens and artificial preservatives.

Foot creams with natural ingredients

PODOdiabatic foot creams often make use of the recognised effect of the body's own urea. It is considered to be an effective moisturising and regulating support for dry skin. In the composition with extracts from the avocado plant, the care products have a long-lasting effect. PODOdiabetic creams based on MicroSilver BG also have an antibacterial effect and make diabetic skin less susceptible to germs and other pathogens.

Selected oils make the feet supple and prevent neurodermatitic irritations.

Antibacterial and foot odour inhibiting spray

Foot spray from the PODOdiabetic category refreshes the feet and protects them from bacteria that can trigger both unpleasant odours and inflammation. The products are often based on MicroSilver BG - a high-purity silver element with antimicrobial properties. It goes into the sprays in an effective formulation with antiseptic and moisturising ingredients such as sage oil and glycerine.

Foot baths with additional anti-inflammatory effect

Similar to the PODOdiabetic sprays, the footbaths of the series, which have been clinically tested for skin compatibility, also use anti-inflammatory MicroSilver BG. It is supplemented by sugar surfactants that cleanse the skin in a mild way and are as a result extremely suitable for sensitive feet. Foot odour and bacteria are a thing of the past with regular use of the baths.

Tip from RUCK: Comprehensive care for sensitive feet is offered by a PODOdiabetic set, which is made up of various products from the range.

Podiatry - but please be diabetes-compliant!

Accurately nourished feet are the be-all and end-all for skin or metabolic diseases such as diabetes. In the latter case, however, caution is called for, because even the smallest injuries that can fall victim to improper cosmetic and medical podiatry pose a real health risk for diabetics.

On the one hand, this danger can be reduced thanks to regular visits and checks in a podiatry practice. It is also important to keep an eye on the condition of the feet and to contact them with the attention they need.

It is important to keep the skin on the feet supple. This is best done with the help of regular foot baths and the use of creams, ointments or sprays specially adapted to the needs of diabetics - such as peclavus PODOdiabetic. In addition, it is essential to make sure that the feet are always well dried and protected from infection with athlete's foot and nail fungus or other diseases.

By the way: Provided that a corresponding prescription is in place, the costs for medical podiatry are in most cases covered by the statutory health insurance funds.
