Yes, I have, worked great. Will answer better tonight.

Hello @opai,

I combined your discussion with a similar discussion titled "Cold laser therapy" - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cold-laser-therapy/ so you could meet some of the other members who have tried this therapy. Even though this discussion is in the neuropathy group, members like @jdiakiw and @mfullbri may be able to share if the laser therapy was beneficial to them.

@opai, if you don't mind sharing, has your son had his ankle/foot pain diagnosed?

I have found that the cold laser therapy helps. It can be expensive, for me $150 a session 2x a week for the first month. I am down to one treatment a week and still see improvements.
I also find the exercises they have given me super helpful. Spelling the alphabet with my ankles as many times as I can in a day. Also rolling my foot on a golf ball, and wearing toe separators.
