Neuropathy : You may have a disorder called neuropathy which is nerve damage that often occurs in someone with diabetes, although there are other causes as well. Talk to your doctor.

Yes, you should: See a doctor. You have neuropathy. Your doc needs to differentiate if you have it secondary to a compressed nerve in your back or secondary to diabetic neuropathy and treat appropriately.
