Thank you for contacting us on Lybrate. This pin prick sensations as you have rightly pointed out is neuropathic pain due to diabetes. You need to get a few tests done like hba1c, ncv of your left foot first to rule out any other pathologic cause. A detailed work up needs to be done before medicines can be prescribed. You can get in touch foa a detailed discussion.
