Hello,
It seems like diabetic neuropathy. You should take under control your blood sugar levels, eating healthy, make some analysis to take the right dose of anti diabetic medication. For your pain you have to consult with Neurologist and maybe is better to take Gabapentin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Blerina Pasho, General & Family Physician
