What is diabetes leg pain?


Restoring balance, one patient at a time.
Diabetes patients show leg pain, need to be alert to ischemic changes in the lower limbs. Diabetes can cause the formation of atherosclerosis in the large arteries. In the lower limbs, due to the gradual increase in arteriosclerosis, the patient will show numbness, cold, pain and other manifestations of the lower limbs, especially after exercise. If the patient has similar conditions, it is recommended that the patient undergo a lower extremity arterial color Doppler examination. If it is clearly judged that there is lower extremity arterial stenosis, it must be treated according to the degree of stenosis. If the lower extremity arterial stenosis is relatively small, it can be controlled by routine anti-arteriosclerosis drugs. If the stenosis degree exceeds 75%, stent implantation should be considered.
