This trial is testing whether the B-Cure Laser Pro device can help diabetic foot ulcers heal faster when used at home as an addition to your regular wound care. You would use this low-level laser device on your ulcer daily at home, while continuing your standard treatment. The study will compare how well this treatment works compared to standard care alone.
Diabetic foot ulcers can be slow to heal and are a serious complication of diabetes. Researchers want to know if adding this laser therapy at home can speed up healing and help prevent complications.
