What Causes Tingling Sensation In Soles And Toes After An Injury?
I fell about 2 weeks ago, and have had a lot of discomfort, in my calves, right hip and behind my knees. Over the past 3-4 days I have had the feeling of pins and needles in my toes, bottoms of my feet. I also have marked weakness from the hips down. I have a history of type 2 diabetes, with no complications so far. My most recent HBA1C was quite high.

Hello,
Thank You for the query at HealthcareMagic
Your symptoms are suggestive of diabetic neuropathy and probably unrelated to trauma/injury.
Physical examination and nerve conduction studies are required to confirm diagnosis
Management is with appropriate foot care and strict control of blood sugar levels.
Please follow up with your primary care provider for further management
Hope I was able to help you
Please address further queries
Regards,
Dr.Lekshmi
