It’s World Diabetes Month and World Diabetes Day on the 14th November!
And so, we want to talk about one of the most misunderstood conditions that can be associated with diabetes – tingling feet 🦶.
Diabetes can cause tingling feet to occur – but it’s not the only reason this can happen!
It is actually a fairly common symptom people experience. It can also be felt as a ‘pins and needles’ or numbness sensation.
Some of the time, this isn’t a cause to be concerned. It can be the result of sitting on our feet for example, but much of the time there is a reason that it happens! 💁♀️
If the tingling is persistent and continues and comes with or without pain, it’s time to seek expert help.
