This case report describes a 33-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes mellitus complicated by peripheral neuropathy, who developed recurrent painless stress fractures in both feet. The patient's poorly controlled blood glucose levels likely contributed to severe neuropathy and increased fracture risk. While fractures in diabetics are often associated with Charcot's foot (painful), this case highlights the possibility of painless stress fractures due to sensory neuropathy. The case also addresses the issue of skeletal abnormalities that can occur in the course of type 1 diabetes. Understanding the relationship between painless stress fractures of the foot and poorly controlled diabetes underscores the importance of early diagnosis and proper glycaemic control of type 1 diabetes mellitus to prevent such complications.
