What Is Diabetic Neuropathy—and Why Your Feet Need Extra Attention
Neuropathy raises the risk of diabetic foot ulcers and amputation
If you live with diabetes and notice tingling, burning, numbness, or “electric” pain in your toes or soles, you could be experiencing diabetic neuropathy. This nerve damage reduces sensation and makes small injuries—like a blister or cut—easier to miss and slower to heal. That’s why steady, proactive foot care is non-negotiable if you want to stay active, independent, and comfortable.
