Multiple remedies: Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage and therefore can never be 100% restored. To improve and prevent further deterioration diet and exercise is the key. Keep blood sugars under control. Stop smoking (affects circulation to nerves) limit alcohol use which destroys nerves. Vit. B may levels should be checked and supplemented as required. Narcotics will mask the symptoms but won’t resolve the issue.

See your gyn: Diabetes can cause a neuropathy causing numbness in some areas including the vagina and clitororal area. See your gyn for an exam to establish the reason. You may also need to see they neurologist.
