Does HBOT promote the healing of diabetic foot ulcers

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a treatment that involves a person breathing nearly pure oxygen in a specialized chamber, which may promote wound healing. Due to this, it may help treat diabetic foot ulcers. Researchers estimate that many people living with diabetes will experience a foot ulcer in their lifetime. They may require hospitalization due to complications. In some cases, a doctor may consider suggesting HBOT.
