A 41-year-old male patient had diabetes for many years and was taking Glucophage and glibenclamide tablets.
Complaints: A painless, non-healing ulcer the size of a coin on the right sole for two years, along with symptoms of diabetic neuropathy.
The ulcer had remained the same size for two years. The patient underwent debridement and surgical cleaning of necrotic tissue, which led to noticeable healing but not complete closure. The wound remained open. Suturing was attempted, but fluid continued to ooze from the wound. The wound was cleaned daily with a standard saline solution. It remained clean, but its edges were thickened, and the size did not change.
An orthopedic surgeon performed a Z-shaped incision and sutured the ulcer. Simultaneously, resonance therapy was initiated. The ulcer completely healed within two weeks. After another two weeks, numbness and reduced sensitivity in his toes improved, though some residual numbness remained. Treatment was discontinued because the patient lived far away and could not attend sessions regularly. His overall condition also significantly improved.
No side effects were observed.
Comments:
The effects of IR therapy on diabetic foot lesions have been noted in many patients undergoing this treatment. The therapy improves blood circulation in the lower limbs.
