A member asked:
When i do squat jump, my leg is shaky. and someone say that my leg is a diabetic foot. is it true that diabetes makes your foot smaller?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Diabetes does not change the size of your feet unless of course the foot gets infected and needs to be amputated. But rest assured that what you have described does not indicate that you have diabetes
