More than 20 million people in the U.S. are estimated to have some form of peripheral neuropathy, a nerve condition causing pain, numbness, tingling and weakness in the hands, arms or feet.
People diagnosed with diabetes and peripheral vascular disease (narrowing of the arteries) are particularly at risk. Of those with diabetes, 28% are sufferers.
These numbers are set to significantly increase. The onset of diabetes and vascular disease is increasingly driven by obesity levels. 100.1 million (41.9%) adults and 14.7 million (19.7%) children in the US are considered obese. In 2023, 19 states in America have obesity rates over 35 percent, an increase from 16 states in 2022. A decade ago, no states had obesity rates above 35 percent. The percentage of U.S. adults with obesity is predicted to reach 58% by 2035.
Budget Pharmacy states that a review of the treatments available for patients reveals few options to improve skin health in the lower legs and feet. Medical practitioners usually only offer palliative measures and begin treatment only when wounds appear. Indeed, the common approach of applying skin moisturizers is usually ineffective in delivering positive clinical outcomes.
Wounds can be severe, difficult to heal and require extensive and sometimes painful interventions including surgery. The worst cases result in amputations. The options for patients with such conditions are limited.
A new more rounded preventative approach is needed to actively manage neuropathic related skin conditions to stop wounds appearing, where possible, and palliative care being required.
Budget Pharmacy's latest service provides specialized guidance, especially for individuals with diabetes and peripheral vascular disease (PVD) who struggle to maintain skin health in their lower limbs. They may suffer from restricted blood flow to their lower limbs, leading to a decrease in nourishment for the skin tissue. This can lead to the development of stubborn wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, which are notoriously difficult to heal. Its purpose is to help clients prevent these issues and achieve optimal overall health.
The new Budget Pharmacy initiative will empower the people of Spring with advice on how to manage neuropathic skin conditions and prevent them becoming critical. As patient volumes soar with increasing obesity levels, in-pharmacy counselling and advice is seen as an essential part of Budget Pharmacy’s community health management service.
The Budget Pharmacy team will offer advice on a range of issues associated with skin care including eliminating severely dry skin with plaques, treating hyperkeratotic skin, healing a diabetic ulcer, reducing and eliminating pain/neuropathy, improving skin hydration, eliminating lower leg edema, improving skin color, improving pedal pulse strength and eliminating serious weeping and drainage caused by edema.
Budget Pharmacy encourages customers to actively self manage neuropathic skin conditions but advises that treatments must be carefully selected. For example, diabetic skin sufferers or those with very sensitive skin can suffer adverse reactions to some creams and lotions. Not all treatments should be applied to open skin wounds. And different lotions and creams deliver different benefits.
The goal of the new service will be to advise patients and reduce the risk of neuropathic skin conditions developing into wounds such as diabetic ulcers, and preventing the need for surgical intervention, which is always painful, but can be extensive and sometimes results in amputation.
