Sacramento, CA, December 01, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Skin care can learn to accommodate all lifestyles if you take the right steps.

So how does being diabetic pose a problem to your skin? The article explains:
When your blood sugar is high, your body automatically loses fluid. When you have less fluid in your system, your skin tends to dry out. Having dry skin can be an annoyance all on its own since it is itchy and can easily get sore. If this dry skin is not treated with proper diabetes-appropriate skin care, then your skin can crack. Cracks permit germs to enter your body and cause infection, and with a high blood sugar, infections multiply and worsen quickly.
When it comes to your daily skin care routine and being diabetic, you can’t leave out any part of your body, especially your feet:
We often fail to consider our feet when we think about skincare, but if you are diabetic, it is important that you remember to be aware of them on a regular basis. Many diabetics suffer from nerve damage in their feet, which means that if you were to get a blister or a cut, you may not feel it. This can escalate into an infection. Sores and blisters on your feet are also at risk because diabetics sometimes experience a lack of blood flow to the lower region of the body, which can make healing of wounds slower and more difficult.
The article gives simple advice to help those with diabetes take better care of certain problem areas, such as their feet:
Just as you do with the rest of your body, do a daily check for cuts, blisters, or other skin care related foot problems. Do this especially if you have experienced nerve damage.
Wearing socks or nylons, while making sure that your shoes fit properly, can cut down on these skin care problems. The same goes for the rest of your body when you wear cotton clothing and undergarments that allow your skin to breathe and get more circulation.
According to skin care expert, Ainslynn Stewart, there are hardly ever any skincare articles about people with special circumstances. “Doing this article made me feel good because a huge population of Americans have diabetes and they don’t always have helpful resources available to them. Skin care is important for these individuals as well.” http://www.skincare-news.com/articles.php?ArtID=210
