Vitamin B1 Deficiency: A disease condition in which the body doesn't have enough vitamin B1 (thiamine). Symptoms include loss of appetite, weakness, pain in the limbs, shortness of breath and swollen feet or legs.

Beriberi disease: Prolonged Vitamin B1 deficiency leads to Beriberi disease. There are two types of beriberi: wet beriberi, which affects the cardiovascular system, and dry beriberi, which affects the nervous system. Dry beriberi injures the nerves, causes muscle strength loss, and may lead to paralysis. Wet beriberi may cause injury to the heart muscle tissue.

Neuropathy: It is a nervous disorder that occurs due to nerve damage caused by chronic progressive nerve disease, limb amputation, diabetes or due to infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, felt as a prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of senses is also common with neuropathic pain.
