Foot pain

[Mike d]

Hi guys


I was diagnosed in June of this year. Is it common to have occasional foot tingling? It only lasts a minute or so then disappears.

Thanks Mike

Not something I can say I've had Mike.....hopefully someone will come along to advise? I know when I had my foot check 6weeks after diagnosis (June for me too!) I passed ok as my feet are very sensitive and as soon as the dn "tickled" me with the fine wire my foot shot up!!

Hi, @Mike D
Might just be something simple,caused by pressure on the nerves, which in turn can be caused by crossing your legs or sitting on your foot for too long.
I also think it is a good idea to make sure you wear good fitted shoes and ensure your feet are well looked after as they do a lot of work.
Your tingling feet should not be ignored, if it tends to get worse or your still worried, then a visit to the Doctor is on the cards.

Mike,

I assume the tingling you get is similar to mine, ie just like little pins & needles? I have been able to put mine down to sitting in one position for to long & literally 1 min later after movement all gone. I am not personally concerned about this but if you have ANY doubts speak to your Dr. Keep well.

Yep, that's what's happening John ... movement seems to ease it almost completely

Appreciate it

If I stand still for a minute or so my feet go almost totally numb. When I start to move the feeling comes back. Doctors say it is B12 neuropathy but I'm not sure.

Understand I don't have anything like that. I really lashed out on some good fitting shoes and they've made a difference .... I'm 60 so I can understand some infrequent discomfort at my age.

Cheers Mike

I change shoe pairs at the moment from day to day so they all have different pressure points. Rotating through 7

Dr Milton Crane advised 21 Type 2 diabetics with neuropathy pain in their feet, to go on a vegan diet and take a brisk 30 min walk each day. After 2 weeks 17 no longer had sore feet and the remaining 4 reported substantial improvements.
