What is Diabetic Neuropathy
Diabetic neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur if you have diabetes. This condition most often damages the nerves in the feet and legs due to high blood sugar levels.
Depending on which nerves have been affected, the symptoms of diabetic neuropathy can range from mild to severe pain and numbness in the legs and feet to problems with digestion, urinary tract infections, and/or blood vessel and heart complications.
