Diabetic Neuropathy

What is Diabetic Neuropathy?

Diabetic Neuropathy is a nerve disorder. It develops when your blood sugar levels are high.  Then, the high blood sugar causes swelling. That swelling compresses your nerves, and you then experience numbness, tingling or burning pain in your feet.

Often, people are told there’s no cure for diabetic neuropathy. But here at Louetta Foot & Ankle, our specialists are devoted to offering pain relief. That’s why we’ve come up with a better way to treat this painful foot condition.

Spring, Texas Diabetic Neuropathy Treatment

Our Spring and Tomball, TX podiatrists learn and offer state-of-the art foot treatment techniques. Which is why we are one of the few practices in state with an effective way of detecting early neuropathy damage.

How do we do that? We have state-of-the-art, computerized sensory test. Once it detects nerve damage, we can offer an advanced surgical procedure to offer relief. This operation, called peripheral nerve decompression, relieves your pain and restores sensation to your feet.

After having this procedure, our patients report life changing results. First, they can put tingling pain and numb feet behind them. And second, they lower their foot ulcer risk, since they can now feel their wounds. (As a reminder, ulcers are open, hard-to-heal wounds. Diabetics are at risk for ulcers because they may not feel small wounds. Then, because of their reduced blood flow, the small wounds are harder to heal. Which means diabetic neuropathy is a risk factor for ulcers. And diabetic neuropathy treatment can reduce your risk!)

Ready to find relief from the tingling pain of neuropathy? We’re here to help! Call the office today and set up a consultation. We’ll give you our advanced neuropathy detection test. And we’ll help determine your best next steps, to reduce your risk of diabetic complications.

Dr. Bachmann, You did a great job on both my toes. I am healing well on this last one. It feels good to mark it off my "to do" list. Now I can start my step aerobics class again. Thank you for taking good care of me.

I wanted to thank you for being so tender with Hallie yesterday.  She was eager to tell me that you thought she was "99.9% perfect."  Although her psoriasis/arthritis in no way defines her, I know she is aware of her health versus her three sisters.  You were the best part of her day and it meant the world to me.

Dr. Walsh has been phenomenal! She had an awesome bedside manner with me as well as my children. Always talking them through every step of the way. You know you have found a lifelong doctor when you entrust your children's care to them. I have recommended Dr. Walsh to many of many friends and all have loved her.

After just 2 treatments with the MLS Laser for my ankle injury, I felt a significant decrease in pain and swelling.  I am very active in the gym so it was very important for me to heal quickly.  Each treatment is quick and painless as well which is a definite plus!  I would recommend this treatment to anyone in pain!

After having a severe case of Plantar Fasciitis, we tried all procedures and treatments to reduce pain and inflammation.  Nothing worked.  I was told by Dr. Bachmann of a new procedure, a laser treatment (MLS) that was new but very effective.  I tried it and after treatment #1 I already felt an improvement.  I'm on treatment 9 of 10 and can honestly say it has relieved the pain and constant irritation I was experiencing for the past 9 months.  I would recommend this treatment and the excellent service of Dr. Bachmann's team of health care professionals.
