A member asked:

I have type 2 diabetes and i currently have noticed that my legs, ankles and feet tend to get tense and swell up. sometimes my ankles burn horribly when walking. is there a reason to this happening.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

They could be : Burning from diabetic neuropathy or the fact the ankles swell and this induces a tarsal tunnel syndrome.....you need to try and minimize that swelling...speak to your doc about possible diuretics or compressive socks...
