I would like to take further history from patient himself.

Hello dear. This invisible itching, burning sensation, numbness etc. is probably due to diabetic neuropathy, a complication of diabetes. As a dermatologist, I recommend you rule out other causes of pruritus and adhere to strict glycemic control.
Next Steps
Schedule an online appointment with me for proper evaluation and treatment.
Health Tips
Avoid foods with high glycemic index.
