Abstract: One of the consequences of Diabetes Mellitus is diabetic foot, which we will address in this scientific manuscript. The diabetic foot is the product of a laceration of the foot which is a consequence of the chronic disease diabetes where the healing time is altered and extended, generating greater risk in life, a decrease in the person's quality of life and a greater cost to the health system. The treatment carried out for the diabetic foot becomes extensive and affects the mobility of the ankle joint, leaving it rigid, which is called ankle ankylosis, losing the functionality of the joint, which causes gait dysfunction. The proposal of this manuscript is to demonstrate the importance of movement in rehabilitation, generating a global approach to the person, encompassing prevention and treatment.
