Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is considered to be one of the most widespread chronic diseases, with almost 10% of the global adult population being diabetic or at risk of developing diabetes, characterized by high plasma glucose concentrations as a result of the inability of the body to adequately produce or use insulin effectively. Diabetes mellitus has been categorized into 3 main types; insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, non-insulation-dependent, gestational diabetes mellitus. Several complications associated with diabetes. The long-term vascular problems of diabetes are the most damaging impact, "microvascular disorders", “neuropathy,” eye or “retinopathy,” and “nephropathy”. Diabetic Foot Infections (DFIs) are described as extensive soft tissue necrosis (ulcers) which are correlated with chronic infections (DFIs). Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) oversaw hospital outbreaks. Diabetes people are exposed to both CA and HA-MRSA due to frequent ulceration and sores. The increase in MRSA soft tissue infections was mainly driven by more community-acquired infections rather than healthcare-associated strains. MRSA can cause a variety of infections, such as; pneumonia, osteoarticular infections, toxic shock syndrome and bacteremia that might be progress to endocarditis or severe sepsis. DFIs treated surgically and or clinical therapy.
