Abstract

Introduction: Pain in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who develop diabetic foot ulcers substantially impairs mobility, wound management, and quality of life, and effective non-pharmacological strategies are urgently needed. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effect of an exercise therapy program on pain reduction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic foot ulcers. Method: A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 60 patients selected by consecutive sampling and allocated to an exercise group (n = 30) or control group (n = 30). The exercise group received an eight-week structured foot and ankle exercise program three times per week in addition to standard care, while the control group received standard care only. Pain intensity was measured using a 0–10 cm visual analogue scale before and after the intervention. Result and Discussion: Baseline pain scores were comparable between groups (6.83 ± 1.21 versus 6.77 ± 1.18). Post-intervention, mean pain decreased to 3.41 ± 1.52 in the exercise group and 5.93 ± 1.44 in the control group. Mean change in pain was −3.42 ± 1.37 versus −0.84 ± 1.10, respectively (t = 7.97; p < 0.001; standardized effect size = 1.99), indicating a large and clinically meaningful effect. Conclusions: Structured exercise therapy significantly reduces pain in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic foot ulcers and should be considered as an adjunct to standard ulcer management.

Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus has become a growing public health concern in Indonesia, and rural communities are increasingly exposed to lifestyle-related risk factors while maintaining traditional work patterns. Objective: This study aimed to explore how community members in Desa Cihanjuang understand and practise physical activity as a strategy for preventing diabetes mellitus. Method: A qualitative descriptive design within an interpretivist–constructivist paradigm was employed. Twenty-two participants, including adult residents, community health cadres, health workers, and village leaders, were selected through purposive sampling. Data were generated through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, non-participant observation, and document review, and were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. Result and Discussion: The analysis yielded four main themes: physical activity is largely perceived as ordinary work rather than intentional exercise; awareness of diabetes risk and the preventive role of physical activity is emerging but uneven; social, cultural, and environmental constraints limit engagement in structured exercise; and community-driven strategies, particularly group-based activities integrated into existing health programmes, represent promising entry points. Conclusions: Diabetes mellitus prevention in Desa Cihanjuang requires context-sensitive interventions that reframe physical activity, address everyday constraints, and strengthen community-led initiatives to support sustainable active living.
