Structural abnormality of the foot (pictures below) is defined as:
‘A change in foot shape that resulted in a difficulty in fitting shoes which could be purchased in high street shops’. (Scottish Diabetes Group – Foot Action Group 2010).
A non significant structural abnormality of the foot can be described as a very minor change of shape of the foot which does not result in areas of pressure, leading to callus formation, and a difficulty in fitting shoes which could be purchased in high street shops.
Significant callus (4/17)
Active ulceration (6/17)
