Peshko AA.

Laseropuncture in patients with diabetes mellitus associated with angiopathies of the lower extremities (grade II and III) produced a pronounced clinical effect which was manifested by removing the pain syndrome, improvement of the peripheral circulation and extremity function and function of the lower extremities, improvement of thermographic values. But this positive dynamics was more pronounced in angiopathies of the lower extremities of the stage of functional disorders than obliterating atherosclerosis of the legs. Sterility of the laser beam, possibility of local effect on biologically active points, non-painful procedure, absence of age limits and side effects allow to widely recommend this method for the treatment of Diabetes mellitus associated with angiopathies of the lower extremities.
