What should I do to help my father, who has diabetes and prostate issues and takes RAPILIF 4mg, for a severe burning sensation in his feet and bottom area that gets worse at night and improves during the day when he drinks water?
In patients with diabetes, a burning feeling in the feet and lower body often points to diabetic neuropathy, which is a type of nerve discomfort. Staying well-hydrated is excellent, but it is very important to have his blood sugar levels checked by his doctor. They can evaluate if his diabetes management needs adjusting or if specific nerve-soothing medications are required. Please continue his silodosin (Rapilif) as prescribed for his prostate, and schedule a medical consultation soon to help him find lasting relief.
