Burning Sensation at bottom of feet
Hi Doctors,
From some time (3 months) , I have burning sensations at the bottom of my left feet. There is no issue on the right foot. The sensation is more after waking in the morning when I start walking or when I start walking after sitting for long.
But also, there is sometimes a sensation when I am just sitting on a chair (earlier it was not there)
I have diabetes(fasting 140 and post meal 180
Hba1c 7.0) and also my vitamin B12 was quite low.
Can you tell me what could be the reason and how can I cure it. Do I need to do any additional tests or if there is any home remedy to treat it.
Thanks

Are you a smoker??
Are you taking any treatment for your diabetes??
There are several causes of the tingling sensation.
Your diabetes and B12 deficiency can both cause tingling sensation for which adequate management of both problems is required.
It is best for you to consult with your doctor who will examine you,get some further tests done and then prescribe appropriate medicine.
