Poor circulation is common in diabetics and people with heart problems. You need to get up and walk around more often. This brings the fluid back up and into your circulatory system. If you let it go, you will start having heart problems too.
You should definately go take this up with your doctor. Diabetics face a lot of issues regarding circulatory issues in thier lower extremities. Make sure you excersise regularly, even if it’s taking walks…
