8% topical capsaicin for peripheral neuropathy

Mostly anything that keeps my blood circulating. I try to exercise 30 to 45 minutes a day and try to not to sit too long at one time. I have issues with balance and walking for any distance due to lower back and spine issues which I think are related to flat back syndrome so my daily exercise is riding a recumbent cross fit bike that uses arms and legs. I need to add more stretching and targeted exercises but have been busy with some of those daily life's challenges we all have thrown our way sometimes. I think I need to spend a couple of days to make a plan to get me through winter and here it is only the end of August 🙃

I have had back issues and knee issues since 1989. I am currently seeing a Dr that doesn’t think I have PN, I am guessing PAD. The numbing started occasionally on 2018 and has gotten progressively worse this year. A trainer years ago recommended before getting out of bed to do stretching, leg lifts , clamshell and pelvic tilt. I feel,it gets the blood moving to my feet. I had not done these exercises for years, but started a few weeks back and it helps, sometimes I do them 2-3 times a day.
