Managing Diabetic Neuropathy:
- Blood Sugar Control: Keeping blood glucose levels in check is crucial.

- Lose weight if overweight.
- Limit alcohol consumption.
- Quit smoking.
- Medications: Pain relief can be managed with medications like tricyclic antidepressants, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, and gamma-aminobutyric acid analogs. Opioids and topical creams may also be used if needed.
- Regular Monitoring: Regular check-ups with your doctor to monitor and adjust your treatment plan.

Preventing Further Nerve Damage:
- Blood Pressure Control: Keep your blood pressure under control.

Complications to Watch For:
