La dermopatia diabetica è una complicazione cutanea comune nelle persone con diabete, caratterizzata dalla comparsa di macchie brune o rossastre sulla pelle, generalmente sulle gambe. Sebbene sia spesso asintomatica e non pericolosa, rappresenta un segnale di alterazioni microvascolari tipiche del diabete e merita attenzione.
La dermatopatia diabetica è una manifestazione cutanea legata ai cambiamenti nei piccoli vasi sanguigni (microangiopatia) causati da iperglicemie prolungate e frequenti. È più comune nelle persone con diabete di lunga durata o scarsamente controllato, ma può colpire anche chi ha prediabete.

La dermatopatia diabetica si presenta tipicamente così:
La prevenzione della dermopatia diabetica si basa sul controllo delle glicemie e sulla cura della pelle.
Effettua visite dermatologiche o diabetologiche per monitorare eventuali segni di complicazioni cutanee.
Non esiste un trattamento specifico per la dermopatia diabetica, ma in molti casi, le macchie possono migliorare spontaneamente nel tempo. Rimane importantissimo mantenere la glicemia sotto controllo anche per prevenire la comparsa di nuove lesioni. Si può ricorrere a trattamenti topici, anche se non specifici per la dermopatia. Potrebbero essere utili alcune creme idratanti o prodotti a base di vitamina E che possono aiutare a migliorare l’aspetto della pelle. Bisogna anche cercare di evitare traumi: proteggere le aree interessate da ulteriori danni favorisce la guarigione.
Sebbene la dermopatia diabetica sia generalmente innocua, è importante distinguere queste macchie da altre lesioni cutanee che potrebbero richiedere un intervento medico, come:
Consulta il medico se noti cambiamenti significativi o se le lesioni diventano dolorose o infiammate.
La dermopatia diabetica è una condizione comune ma spesso sottovalutata nelle persone con diabete. Il suo trattamento principale si basa su un buon controllo glicemico e una corretta cura della pelle.
Prevenire è possibile adottando uno stile di vita sano e seguendo le indicazioni del proprio medico. Sebbene non sia una complicanza grave, merita attenzione per il suo valore diagnostico e come indicatore della necessità di migliorare la gestione del diabete.
