🦵🧠 Sudden severe thigh pain and weakness in a diabetic patient? Don’t ignore it. It may be DIABETIC AMYOTROPHY — a serious but often missed nerve condition. Diabetic amyotrophy affects the nerves supplying the thigh and hip muscles, causing intense pain first, followed by muscle weakness and wasting. ✨ Dr Neeraja explains how to identify this condition early. ⚠️ Common warning signs: • Severe pain in thigh or hip • Sudden weakness in one or both legs • Difficulty standing up or climbing stairs
