Patient's question:
Always uncomfortable, feeling bad, can't sleep. Why do diabetic patients have cold legs and feet?Doctor's answer:
Diabetic patients who experience coldness in their legs and feet again may have diabetic vasculitis. Diabetes can lead to the recurrence of systemic vascular hardening. Inflammation of lower limb blood vessels in diabetes can cause lower limb vascular hardening, insufficient blood supply due to atherosclerosis, leading to cerebral edema and suffocation in the lower limbs, which results in coldness in the legs and feet. In this case, it is necessary to actively control blood sugar. Appropriate use of many drugs that stabilize lower limb circulation can be considered.
