| Damaged
nerves may make it difficult to feel pain, pressure, heat and cold. You
may notice irritated skin, pain, or pressure caused by collapsing joints. |

| Blocked
blood vessels bring fewer nutrients to your feet. Without nourishment, sores
may not be able to heal. |
| Weakened
bones may slowly shift, causing your foot to become deformed and changing
the way your foot distributes pressure. |
| Collapsed
joints, especially a collapsed arch, acn no longer absorb pressure. The
surrounding skin may begin to break down. |
