feet.
1.Check both feet
                                   daily
 Look over both feet carefully every day.

 Be sure you check between all of your
  toes.

 Listers and infections can start between
  your     toes,   and     with     diabetic
  neuropathy, you may not feel them until
  they've become irritated or infected.

 If a physical challenge keeps you from
  checking your own feet, ask a family
  member to help.
2.Wash with warm -
                            not hot - water
 Wash both of your feet briefly each day
  with warm - not hot - water.

 You may not be able to feel heat with
  your feet, so test the water with your
  hands first.

 Avoid soaking too long in water, since
  waterlogged sores have a harder time
  healing.

 Dry your feet right away, and remember
  to dry gently between all of your toes.
3. Make sure your
                                shoes fit well
 It's an investment worth making. Even
  the slightest rubbing or misfit shoe can
  cause a blister that turns into a sore that
  becomes infected and never heals.

 Buy better-fitting shoes, or try different
  socks, even at the most minor signs of
  redness or irritation, since you may not be
  able to feel when it's getting worse.

 Before buying or putting on the shoes
  check your shoes for rough seams, sharp
  edges or other objects that could hurt
  your feet. And break your shoes in
  gradually.
4. Speak up

 Nerve damage can be unpredictable.

 Tell your doctor about any changes in
  sensation in your toes, feet, or legs.

 Speak up if you notice pain, tingling, a
  pins-and-needles feeling, numbness, or
  any other unusual signs - even if it seems
  trivial to you.
5. Stay soft - but dry
 Cracked skin means it's easier for bacteria
  to get under your skin and harder for
  infections to heal.

 Use a small amount of skin lotion
  daily, but be sure your feet feel dry - not
  damp or sticky - afterwards.

 Try not to get the lotion in between your
  toes.

 Keep your toenails trimmed and filed
  smooth to avoid ingrown toenails.

 Use a pumice stone after showering or
  bathing to softly file corns or calluses.
6. Control your blood
                               sugar
 Controlling your blood glucose also helps
  reduce the symptoms of diabetic nerve
  pain.

 controlling your glucose levels with
  diet, exercise, and if needed, medications
  can not only help prevent diabetic
  peripheral neuropathy, it can also help
  reduce the symptoms.

 The two most important determinants of
  whether you get diabetic neuropathy are:
  1. How many years you have had diabetes
  and control.
  2. Controlling of blood pressure, lipids and
  not smoking are also important in the
  prevention of diabetic neuropathy.
7. Try non-impact
                                    exercise

 The best prevention for nerve
  pain, ultimately, is to start the exercise.

 Swimming, cycling, yoga, and tai chi are
  increasingly popular ways to exercise -
  with minimal impact on your feet.

 Talk with your doctor before starting an
  exercise program.
