Insensate Foot is a condition where a person loses sensation in their foot, making them unaware of injuries or pressure-related damage. This can lead to serious complications if not managed properly. People with Insensate Foot are at a higher risk of developing foot ulcers, infections, and other complications due to the lack of pain perception.
