Tired of Burning, Tingling, or Numb Feet?
What’s Causing Your Foot Pain?
If you have diabetes, foot pain, burning, tingling, or numbness may be caused by more than one condition.
Many patients assume it’s just “neuropathy,” but symptoms like these are often linked to:
Nerve damage (diabetic neuropathy)
Reduced circulation (PAD)
Inflammation or pressure on nerves
Long-term diabetes progression
That’s why proper evaluation is critical. Treating the wrong cause can delay relief and allow symptoms to worsen over time.
We focus on identifying the root cause so you can receive the most effective, non-surgical treatment.
Diabetic Foot Symptoms
If you have diabetes, foot symptoms are often early warning signs of nerve damage or poor circulation.
Many people ignore these symptoms or assume they’re part of aging, but they can progressively worsen without proper evaluation.
Burning sensation in Feet
Tingling or “pins and needles”
Numbness or reduced feeling
Sharp, shooting, or stabbing pain
Foot pain that worsens at night
Sensitivity to touch
Cold feet
Slow-healing sores or wounds
Changes in skin color or texture
Cramping or weakness in legs and feet
Swelling in the lower legs or ankles
These discomforts are just the tip of the iceberg. If left untreated, these symptoms can progress over time, leading to increased nerve damage, loss of sensation, and a higher risk of serious foot complications.
Early evaluation is critical to identify the cause and prevent symptoms from worsening.
How Do Diabetic Foot Symptoms Progress Over Time?
Diabetic foot symptoms often start subtly—mild tingling, occasional numbness, or discomfort.
Over time, these symptoms can become more frequent and more intense, making it harder to ignore daily foot pain.
As the condition progresses, many patients experience:
Increased pain or sensitivity, especially at night
Greater loss of feeling in the feet
Difficulty noticing cuts, blisters, or injuries
Slower healing and increased risk of complications
Non-Surgical Treatment Options for Diabetic Foot Pain
Treating diabetic foot pain starts with identifying the underlying cause—whether it’s nerve damage, reduced circulation, or both. At MINT, care is focused on improving function, reducing pain, and addressing the source of your symptoms without surgery.
Foot pain in diabetic patients is often treated as neuropathy without confirming the cause. At MINT, we perform targeted, non-invasive testing to determine whether your symptoms are related to nerve damage, circulation issues (PAD), or another condition — so you can receive the right treatment from the start.

Targeted Circulation Support
Poor blood flow is a common contributor to diabetic foot pain. Improving circulation helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the feet, which supports healing, reduces discomfort, and improves overall function over time.
Nerve Pain Relief
Burning, tingling, and numbness are often linked to nerve damage. Non-surgical therapies can help reduce nerve sensitivity, relieve discomfort, and improve daily quality of life, especially for symptoms that worsen at night.
Non-Surgical Treatment
Treatment is delivered using advanced, non-surgical techniques focused on restoring function without major procedures. Most treatments are performed in-office with minimal downtime.
