Diabetic Neuropathy
Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage that can appear in people with diabetes when high glucose levels affect the nerve fibers over time, especially in the feet and legs.
Common symptoms: tingling, burning, numbness, or pain in the extremities, as well as loss of sensation that sometimes makes small wounds go unnoticed.
Why is it important? As sensation decreases, the risk of foot injuries that can become complicated increases; for this reason, care and periodic checkups are key.
Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist and the internist oversee diabetes control, while the neurologist evaluates the condition of the nerves and the pain specialist provides support when there is intense discomfort. If you notice changes in sensation in your feet or hands, it is advisable to discuss it with one of these professionals.
