Dr. Brenner provides us with a look at some of the common skin problems seen in patients who have diabetes mellitus. As he points out, several of these skin conditions precede the actual clinical and laboratory diagnosis of diabetes by several months to several years. Podiatrists may well be the first physicians to see these prodromal dermopathies and be able to make an early diagnosis and aid the patients in obtaining early treatment.
