Nerve pain in feet
My feet are on FIRE tonight. I keep looking at them expecting to see them huge & swollen; but they’re fine. MS is so, so cruel. I’m taking 600 mg of Oxcarbazepine twice a day. It helped for a while but my feet are killing me today! Any suggestions for relief???? Please.
I’m so sorry. I’m experiencing the same thing from head to toe! Feels like I’m on fire. My feet are the worst though. I take gabapentin but it’s not helping. I’d say definitely call your ms nurse. I think I’ll leave a message tonight. Feel better soon!
I have had this constantly for three years, some waxing and waning but always present. Here is what helps me; bengay ultra strength spread on my feet and calves at night. Smells, but helps, so who cares. Next, aspercreme 4% lidocaine cream, on the feet. It’s OTC, helps too. Finally, voltaren gel, also OTC here in Israel, I think it’s still prescription in the US. Some nights I use all three before the fire gets to a slow simmer, but they do seem to work for me. Hope it helps you, too, at least enough to sleep.
