What Causes Tingling And Swelling In Hands Of A Diabetic?
Hi! Im a 54 year old female and I'm an insulin dependent diabetic. I recently started a job as a deli customer service and do alot of lifting, washing and scrubing. However, I am used to alot of those things around my home and also do yard work. My hands tingle and they swell during the night creating alot of pain.

Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.
Dear Mam, The Tingling sensation in hands is classical symptom of Diabetic neuropathy. Slowly pain also starts. To prevent such complication strict control blood sugars is necessary.
Tab. Pregabilin + Methylcobalamin would help you in reducing such tingling sensation and pain.
Hope this guides you.
Thank you.
