Brief Answer:
your sore and tender ankle may be due to diabetic neuropathy
Detailed Answer:
Hello,I am Dr.Rajesh Teli,MD.
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
As far as sore and tender ankles are concerned it is unlikely ti be due to frusemude.you have other factors which can cause it.
1.Diabetic neuropathy which can cause burning and pain in skin over ankles.
2.you have poor circulation in lower limb which can cause dry and sore skin.
3.Arthritis can cause pain around ankle.
You must focus in proper control of sugar and continue all medicines
