The diabetic mellitus leads to development of diseases that are related to neuropathic sensory loss and peripheral arterial diseases (PAD) which inturn triggers the diabetic foot formation. The neuropathic lead to loss of sensation and PAD lead to ischemia, the systematic analysis showed that 0.003-2.8% of neuropathic caused diabetic and 0.01- 0.4%  PAD caused diabetic. The common clinical manifestation of PAD is numbeness, tingling, and loss of feeling in foot. Diabetes can also be one of the reasons for the formation of Charcot arthropathy, which includes diminishing of bones, joints and soft tissues. Neuropathy also leads to continuous micro trauma, metabolic disorders of bone which causes inflammation, fractures and deformities which highly contributes for the infections to occur.
