A diabetic sock is a non-restrictive, but close fitting garment designed to alleviate internal pressures on the foot or leg. Typically sufferers of diabetes are the most common users of this type of sock, as they have a greater chance of developing peripheral neuropathy, vascular disease, and infections (especially in the legs).
