swollen feet

For the last two days my feet have been very swollen.  Is this connected to my diabetes?

It is possible especially if your feet have gone through stress before , like broken ankle, hurted the mountain muscle, twisted, smashed the top of your foot. Your feet will take a lot longer to heal and they won't heal as well as a person that's not diabetic. Also if your standing for a long period of time, even walking for a long period of time will cause that. Shoes are a key also. Comfortable, closed in shoes with rubber soles (like tennis shoes) are the best. Open shoes allow your feet to swell more because there's no support.
