Numbness or a reduced ability to feel pain and temperature changes.
Sharp, shooting pain that often worsens at night.
Balance problems, muscle weakness, or cuts and blisters you may not feel.
Warning Signs β Get Medical Help If β οΈ π
You have a foot wound, blister, or ulcer that is not healing.
You notice redness, warmth, swelling, pus, or fever (seek urgent medical assessment).
You experience sudden new weakness or rapidly worsening symptoms.
π‘ How to Lower Your Risk β οΈ
Keep your blood glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol within target ranges.
