The pathogenesis of painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is very complex and its detailed understanding often beyond the remit of the diabetologist or the diabetes multidisciplinary team. Nonetheless it is a very common and difficult to treat complication of diabetes, with significant co-morbidity and mortality, and some basic understanding may help the health care professional with its day to day management. In this review, we discuss the basic pathological mechanisms of PDN, and its clinical manifestations, and present both scientific and real world data on its management, in an attempt to help improve patient care and outcomes.
