My mom's been having this burning sensation in both her feet, and it's been getting worse, especially at night. She's diabetic and weighs 89 kg. Im really worried because she can't sleep with the discomfort. Could it be neuropathy or something else related to her diabetes? What kind of treatment should she consider, and what type of doctor would be best to consult for this? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Consult a Neurologist or Diabetologist. Tight control of blood sugar to prevent further nerve damage. Consider medications like gabapentin for neuropathic pain.and evaluate vit b12 levels Focus on weight management and a healthy diet. Ensure proper foot care and inspections. Its critical to get your mom evaluated by a specialist as soon as possible, so they can tailor the treatment to her specific condition.

I've had what looks like man boobs for about 10 years now and I'm 22. I read online it might be gynaecomastia since I can feel a hard lump under my nipples when I press them. I've been hitting the gym for 2 months but it's still there. How can I confirm if it's really gynaecomastia and are there ways to fix it without surgery? It's making me a bit depressed thinking about going under the knife
It's possible you have gynaecomastia, which is the development of breast tissue in males. A hard lump under the nipple is a common symptom, and it's often caused by hormonal imbalances. While exercise can help reduce overall fat, it may not directly target the breast tissue itself. You can confirm it with a doctor's examination, and various non-surgical treatments can be explored
