Hi yadeva ,

Has your doctor seen you in person for an appointment for your feet? They can do an exam to see if you may need another type of medication/treatment for the issues you’re having on and off.

Hello,

What is your age? any advice from your doctor. Many Tamil Nadu doctors have made video in Tamil type 2 people!

HbA1c do go up as we age!

You can use a cream to locally produced medical oil to control it.

Ankle-brachial index test can give an indication on ( peripheral artery disease (PAD)).

You can ask your doctor to do this test.
