Socks

With the warm weather coming forth it is time to switch socks. A common mistake I see with runners is thin socks. Running in a thin sock can cause friction and blistering. The other mistake I see a lot in warm weather with diabetics is them going either without a sock or thinking that the thicker diabetic sock is not needed. These are both myths and should be avoided in diabetics. It is important to maintain proper socks and thickness depending on the medical history and activity level.
