Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your fathers symptoms. These are suggestive of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). In DPN, the peripheral nerves (located in the skin) get affected. The common sites where nerves get affected are feet and hands. The common symptoms due to DPN are tingling, burning, numbness and pain in feet and hands. Nerve conduction studies may be done to confirm the diagnosis. Medications such as pregabalin or gabapentin capsules could help reduce the symptom severity. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
