I am type 1 diabetic aged 19 but have recently been having trouble with aching and coldness in my legs and feet. im unsure of whether this should be a concern or is simply due to lack of exertion during quarantine?

Close monitoring: Close monitoring of your blood glucose levels is advised. Please follow up with your Endocrinologist and Pediatrician. These symptoms may be due to poor circulation. Exercise normally unless there is respiratory distress or chest pain. Follow your dietary restrictions, drink fluids and monitor your temperature.
