Diabetic foot is one of the serious complications of diabetes and develops in up to 25% of diabetic patients during their lifetime. Studies have shown that diabetic neuropathy is one of the important factors for the onset of diabetic foot, that about 85% diabetic feet are associated with neuropathy, and that diabetic neuropathy usually involves sensory nerve fibers. Therefore, it has become crucial to investigate how to better diagnose and treat diabetic foot sensory neuropathy. This review summarizes the current evaluative and therapeutic methods for diabetic foot sensory neuropathy with a view of providing reference for clinicians.
