Webinar: Foot Care for PN
Managing the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy is of course vital to PN patients, but did you know that it is equally important to ensure the physical health of your feet – particularly if you are one of the many PN patients who experience numbness or loss of feeling in your feet?
FPN welcomes Dr. Jeffrey Lehrman, podiatrist, to share how patients can ensure the health of their feet, why this is important, and some tips and best practices in foot care for patients with PN, particularly diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
A question and answer session will follow.
Webinar held live on May 20, 2021, and sponsored by Orpyx.
