A few minutes ago i got into the shower and the water was warm but it felt like it was burning my feet and now my feet are tingling and feel numb. I looked this up on google and it said i could have nerve damage or diabetes. Please let me know what you think.

Hello At your age you are unlikely to have undetected diabetes however if you have family history you should always get checked for type 1 diabetes. The sensations that you are feeling in your limbs are called paresthesias and are more likely to be caused by vitamin b12 deficiency than other things.
Next Steps
you should get your basic workup done including CBC and vitamin levels and consult about the same.
