Diabetes mellitus is a chronic debilitating metabolic disorder which, when it involves the foot, is one of the most dreaded complications associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Various treatment modalities are used for the treatment of diabetic ulcer. Better wound care and control of blood sugar levels helps in preventing amputation and limb loss. Here we discuss a case of diabetic foot ulcer in which music therapy was used as an adjunct modality of treatment.
