Diabetic neuropathy is one diabetic complication that involves damage to the nerves. It's estimated that around half of all people with diabetes will develop some form of neuropathy, although not everyone will experience symptoms. Diabetic neuropathy can lead to a loss of sensation in the feet and hands, as well as pain, weakness, and muscle cramps.
In severe cases, it can even lead to paralysis and organ damage. There are four main types of diabetic neuropathy, each with its own set of symptoms.
While there's no cure for diabetic neuropathy, treatments are available to help manage the symptoms. If you have diabetes, it's important to be aware of the signs and symptoms of diabetic neuropathy so that you can seek treatment early. Here are the four cardinal signs of diabetic neuropathy.
