In this episode, we talk with Dave Jeter, PT, about physical therapy and diabetes. We bust the myth that pain always means damage. Dave explains why a good physical exam often beats an MRI. We dig into knee pain and why hips and ankles matter. We cover frozen shoulder in diabetes and why flexibility is key. Dave shares a simple plan: train mobility, strength, endurance, and balance—especially balance after 60. We discuss neuropathy, why gadgets don’t cure it, and how cardio can help. You’ll learn when to try PT first, when surgery may help, and how small steps now protect your future. Action tips: add a balance snack, plan a weekly flexibility session, and walk most days. PT can help you move better, hurt less, and stay independent.
