Diabetic Neuropathy Physiotherapy in Indirapuram

Symptoms

Tingling, burning, pins and needles or numbness, usually starting in the toes and spreading upward in a stocking pattern. Some people have sharp or shooting pains, especially at night. Others simply lose feeling without pain. Balance may worsen because the feet send less information to the brain.

Why balance matters

Reduced sensation in the feet makes it harder to feel the ground. Combined with muscle weakness, this raises fall risk. Balance training can improve stability, and it's one of the most practical things physiotherapy offers.

Exercise and foot safety

Regular exercise helps blood sugar control and general health. For people with reduced sensation or foot deformity, lower-impact options like cycling, swimming and seated exercise may be safer. Good footwear and daily foot checks are essential.

Pain relief

TENS may help some people with nerve pain. Medication from your doctor is often needed. Staying active and managing blood sugar can reduce progression.
