Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can cause chronic burning, tingling, numbness, and pain, most commonly in the feet and lower legs.
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can cause chronic burning, tingling, numbness, and pain, most commonly in the feet and lower legs. Symptoms and severity vary from patient to patient, so the diagnosis should be based on the complete clinical picture rather than a single symptom or imaging finding.
At Renova Pain, evaluation begins with the history and physical examination. Imaging and prior records are reviewed when appropriate. The goal is to identify the most likely source of symptoms before recommending treatment.
Persistent, worsening, or function-limiting symptoms deserve an individualized evaluation. New or progressive weakness, bowel or bladder dysfunction, saddle numbness, severe headache with neurologic change, or other concerning symptoms may require urgent medical assessment.
