Hello,

As you are suffering from Diabetes and Neuropathy is commonly observed among diabetic patients. Due to neuropathy patient can suffer from burning and tingling sensations in the body, toes, feet, hands.

This is due to weakening of the nerves of the body which carry sensations. This can be controlled by keeping blood glucose level within the limits and feeding of vitamins. You may need necessary tests to check HBAIC and blood glucose tests. You need to see an endocrinologist to get yourself properly assessed.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar, Dentist
