Nowadays, Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the most challenging chronic health conditions worldwide. Diabetes foot related complications require appropriate education of the patient, but it can be prevented by proper foot care. On the other hand, social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter provides important opportunities for enhancing health communication and health care, including self-management of chronic conditions such as DM. However, no study has evaluated the occurrence of Brazilian Facebook groups used as the source of information sharing about diabetic foot care. Than, his study analyzed the occurrence of groups related to diabetic foot care on Facebook in Brazil.
