Suggest Treatment For Cold And Numbness On Feet Of A Diabetic Person
Thank you, I am 63 and have diabetes. I have type 2 and take Meds. I don t do shots. I am in good health and have a question about my feet. The last 2 years or less, I have lived with cold and numbness. I have also had pin and needle pain. but been taking lyrica and it has helped a lot. Now my question, I feet look very good. no swelling at all. but I have seen more red on the bottom of my feet. when I get off my feet it seem to go away. but also tonight I took a shower and my palm it was red. then it went away also. Please tell me what may cause the red on my feet. Thank you david
The coldness and numbness may be related to diabetes neuropathy. You may need to keep blood sugar in normal range. You may need to take medical treatment for neuropathy. Lyrics may be an option.
