Higher severity of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) is linked to lower education levels and indoor occupations.
Among 316 patients, 43.04% had DFUs, with 66.9% of ulcers found in weight-bearing areas.
Factors such as obesity, comorbidities like hyperlipidemia, and inadequate foot care increase DFU severity.
Cross-sectional analysis reveals important associations, calling for targeted interventions in higher-risk groups.
