Diabetic Neuropathy

Diabetic neuropathy is a long term complication of diabetes that occurs when the nerves are damaged.

The most common type of diabetic neuropathy is called peripheral neuropathy. The peripheral nerves are the nerves that go out from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles, skin, internal organs, and glands. Peripheral neuropathy damages these sensory and motor nerves.

Diabetic neuropathy can also affect the nerves that regulate other vital functions, such as heart rate and digestion. These nerves make up the autonomic nervous system. This type of problem is called autonomic neuropathy.
