Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy is a type of nerve damage caused by diabetes.

When high blood sugar levels injure the nerves, it can affect your arms, hands, legs, and feet.

๐Ÿ”น What makes it different from poor circulation?

Diabetic neuropathy affects the nerves, while Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) affects the blood vessels. Both are seriousโ€”but they are not the same.
Common Symptoms Include:

โœ… Burning or tingling sensation
โœ… Numbness or loss of feeling
โœ… Sharp, shooting pain
โœ… Increased sensitivity
โœ… Weakness in the feet or hands

If you have diabetes, early detection and regular foot checkups are very important to prevent complications.
