Diabetic Foot Pain – Symptoms, Causes & Treatments

Muscle Weakness

Another possible symptom of diabetic foot pain is muscle weakness. It would make it more difficult for you to walk or you might be clumsy and prone to accidents when doing something on your feet. These conditions indicate that the pain is damaging your motor nerves gradually. Loss of balance and stumbling walking with foot drop are common complications of this sign. Talk with your doctor immediately when you notice the symptom to avoid further complications. You can also try to diagnose yourself by standing on the tiptoes in a few seconds. If you cannot do it or feel more difficult to do, then it would be a clear sign of diabetic foot pain. [3]
