Diabetes excluded as neuropathy appears late and is most probably bilateral , if it's in one foot then search forn a local cause!.!.!.Morton's neuroma or Tarsal tunnel syndrome should be considered and nerve conduction test performed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
One symptom does not make a diagnosis!.!.!. in otherwords, if you are not having any other symptoms of diabetes, you don't have diabetes just becaue your foot is tingly!. Though peripheral neuropathy is a complication of diabetes, it is not a symptom used for diagnosing, and diabetes is highly unlikely if you have not been experiencing symptoms!. Tingling sensation can be caused by two things!.!.!. poor nerve conduction and poor circulation!. Pregnancy and childbirth put a huge strain on the body!.!.!. it's possible that you now have a pinched nerve in you spine or something else that was pregnancy related!. Peripheral neuropathy can be caused by lots of things!. Slight anatomical deviations of the foot and toes can cause poor circulation!.!.!. I would suggest a visit to the doc to see if there's an underlying cause (i!.e!. diabetes, deformity) that needs to be treated!. Sometimes they can do things to prevent it from getting worse (i!.e!. surgery, if it's an anatomical deformity), and sometimes, if they can't find the cause, they will not be able to do anything!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
sounds like poor blood circulation to the feet or neuropathy !. If it gets too bd go to the doctor and get a nerve conduction test!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
