This study will be carried out on 60 patients both gender male and female with diabetic neuropathy with age55-65 years. The patients will be selected from Elmahmoudia hospital .patients will be randomly assigned to two groups.
Experimental Group:
This group will include 30 type II diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy Patients will receive TENS and NMES for 30 minutes 3 days per week,for 10 weeks with medical treatment.
Control Group:
This group will include 30 type II diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy Patients will receive placebo TENS and NMES for 30-min sessions, 3 days per week, for 10 weeks with medical treatment.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| nerve conduction velocity | Adhesive patches called surface electrodes are placed on the skin over nerves or muscles at different spots. A very mild electrical impulse is applied via other patches or a handheld stimulator to stimulate the nerve. The resulting electrical activity of the nerve is recorded by the electrodes. The distance between electrodes and the time it takes for electrical impulses to travel between electrodes are used to measure the speed of the nerve signals. It is normal for several different nerves to be tested. | 10 weeks |
| Electromyography | An EMG evaluates the electrical activity a muscle produces at rest and when it contracts, similar to an EKG of the heart muscle. The doctor places a single, small, Teflon-coated wire pin into selected muscles to be studied. The tip of the pin acts like an antenna, picking up electrical activity from the muscle that can be heard and seen on a screen. You will be asked to tighten (contract) the muscle. Electrical activity is recorded and can be heard as popping and clicking sounds when the muscle is contracting | 10 weeks |
