I have recently started experiencing a burning sensation in one of my feet, on the heel. Is this neuropathy?
My diabetic clinic never properly checks my feet but I went to a chiropodist privately almost a year ago. I have an old verrucca which I discussed removing but he said it can cause more complications in diabetic feet and to leave it. The verruca is on this heel. He did a sensation test that showed only the tiniest bit of nerve damage on the end of my big toe on the other foot.
I have been diabetic 31 years with difficult to stabalise BG in the early years. I have been wearing an insulin pump for almost 2 years and my BG is the best it's ever been.
What should I do? Can they treat this?
