Burning nerve pain, with raw sore feeling under the ball of my feet

Hello @cindylyn, Welcome to Connect. I know it has to be difficult dealing with so many conditions along with not being able to get much sleep. Hoping the experience of others may provide some suggestions that provide you with some relief and answers. I don't think you are alone with the burning pain in your feet. @rmoran1966 started a discussion on the topic that you might find helpful.

You mentioned open wounds under the balls of your feet and back of your toes. Have your doctors suggested any treatments to help heal the wounds?

Thanks a million for your help. I will check those discussions out.
As for my feet I don’t actually have open wounds, but it feels like that. It’s unbearable and feels like a wound on the balls of my feet and back of my toes. I keep a good eye on my feet due to diabetes.
Really appreciate your reply as I’m desperate for any relief.
Thanks 😊

My wife uses an ointment called 'diclofenac Sodium for her nerve pain. It is fairly effective in reducing her pain level. Her foot doctor prescribed it. May be worth looking into.
will offer a prayer to our Lord, Jesus, for some pain relief.

Good morning folks. I am 73 years old with type 2 diabetes and overweight. I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet. I have the tingling, numbness, sensitivity, coldness, etc. I have been trying different OTC creams and ointments and really have not found much relief.

What have others found that provide relief? I have tried Nervine, Asper cream with lidocaine, Mama Bear Oasis, and Hempvana for nerves and all products with minimal relief. I also take a magnesium pill daily.

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you

Thanks so much for your reply. Will look into that cream. Sending healing hugz to your wife.
Many thanks

Hi sorry to hear you’re a nerve sufferer like me. Only thing that helps with my nerve pain is nerve medication from my doctor. Sadly it doesn’t help my burning pain.
Hopefully you find something that works.
Best wishes

You are so welcome. I hope you find something that works.
Have a blessed weekend!

Hello @ollieblair, I would like to add my welcome to Connect along with @cindylyn and others. I only have numbness and some tingling in my feet and legs but no pain. I shared my neuropathy journey in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

You may have morton's neuroma. It might be a good idea to see a podiatrist. They'd use ultrasound to determine if ablating or reducing the nerve, or steriod injection would help. It would be good to have a diagnosis, expecially since you have several conditions that can cause foot pain. Ice can help, but not for long enough.
