If you have diabetes or peripheral neuropathy, it is important to carefully monitor your blood sugar levels. Over time, high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels and nerves in your feet and feet. Fortunately, a proper diet and regular moderate-intensity exercise can help improve your body's insulin use.

 Adopting a healthy diet and exercise habits is important for controlling blood sugar levels. In addition, studies show that lifestyle changes can prevent the onset and slow the progression of neuropathy. Also, exercises that improve circulation, such as walking, can help reduce pain.

 To change your lifestyle to help with peripheral neuropathy:

 Do regular exercise. Talk to your doctor about the exercise routine that suits you best. Exercise not only helps you achieve and maintain a healthy weight but also improves your body's insulin utilization and improves blood flow. It also strengthens muscles and improves coordination and balance. Your doctor may have instructed you to start an exercise program that does not stress your feet, such as walking, swimming, cycling, or yoga. You may need to limit exercises that stress your feet, such as running or aerobics. People with neuropathy, especially those with bone deformities, should always wear the right shoes to avoid pressure ulcers and foot ulcers.

Stop smoking if you smoke. Smoking exacerbates cardiovascular problems and exacerbates the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. It also significantly increases the risk of heart disease in diabetics. Talk to your doctor about how to quit smoking. People often look to medications such as counseling and nicotine patches, gums, prescription drugs, and other adjuvants. Antidepressants also help reduce cravings while reducing the pain caused by neuropathy.

Please limit alcohol carefully. Alcohol can exacerbate peripheral neuropathy and make it difficult to control blood sugar levels.
