Diabetic nerve entrapment is a complication that arises when prolonged high blood sugar levels cause swelling of the nerve as it travels through tight spaces. This is often referred to as diabetic neuropathy. This condition can affect various parts of the body, leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness. It commonly impacts the feet and hands but can involve other areas as well.

Early detection is crucial! Diabetic nerve entrapment can significantly impact daily life and quality of life. Recognizing symptoms early on allows for better management and can prevent the development of severe complications. It's essential for individuals with diabetes to stay vigilant and seek medical advice if they experience any unusual sensations or pain.

If you think you may have diabetic nerve entrapment call today to get it checked out! 515-444-2390
