Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if foot-ankle exercise can prevent diabetic foot ulcer incidence in patient with diabetes neuropathy. It will also learn about the effect of foot-ankle exercise on improvement of diabetes neuropathy severity, glycemic control, brain-derived neurotropic factor, walking speed, foot ankle range of motion, callus. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does foot-ankle exercise lower the number of diabetic ulcer incidence * Does foot-ankle exercise lower the diabetes neuropathy severity * Does foot-ankle exercise improve glycemic control * Does foot-ankle exercise improve brain-derived neurotrophic factor * Does foot-ankle exercise improve walking speed * Does foot-ankle exercise improve foot ankle range of motion * Does foot-ankle exercise lower the number of callus incidence

Detailed description

Researchers will compare intervention group foot-ankle exercise used elastic band to a control group to see if foot-ankle exercise work to prevent diabetic foot ulcer incidence in patient with diabetes neuropathy Participants will: * Do foot-ankle exercise for three times a week with non-consecutive day for 1 year * Report the incidence of callus and diabetic foot ulcer whenever they have

Conditions

• Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU)
• Neuropathy (Disorder)

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	foot-ankle exercise	The exercise was done 3 times a week (15x/until they tired x 2set). The exercise used a elastic band with difference thickness (0,5 mm in 12 weeks and 0,65 mm in nine month)
