Hi there...I use ice and massage the affected areas. I use thin gloves (gloves I use for preparing foods or doing yard work or cleaning around the house -- not the plastic gloves) when inserting my hands into gel gloves ( I think there's gel inside the gloves) that you put in the freezer. Using gloves doesn't hurt my hands and can last about 10 minutes The gloves for feet aren't easy to use, so I just let my feet get cold (winter time anyway), until I can't tolerate the coldness anymore. It really helps a lot. Don't do more than 10 minutes each time you ice your hands/feet. I hope this will help your neuropathy.
