Besides, I don't want to lose a toe or worse just because I like my feet bare. My grandmother lost part of her foot, and never really walked properly again, and got MRSA. Thanks for the tips.

Since you're diabetic I'd definitely recommend some sort of foot protection, as gangrene resulting from neuropathy is one of the main reasons that people with diabetes lose toes. I used to wear boat shoes or other moccasin-style footwear, but Crocs are cheaper and easy to keep clean, can be washed in the sink like a dirty dish, are comfortable and easy to slip on/off.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402651457453813639noreply@blogger.com
