I my case Lidocaine patches applied to the bottom of my feet help a lot. I had to experiment with different brands to find the right stickiness - not too sticky but also not coming off at night. Additionally, I wear socks which help most nights. Sometimes they bother me in the middle of the night and I have to take them off. Extended Pain Relief Numbing Patches from TIDL are my favorite Lidocaine patches right now. Normally I cut the patches in half to save some money, but when I really need help - I can still run - I apply a whole patch on each foot and the relief lasts into the morning when I am out for my run.
Additionally, during the day, Naboso Neuropathy or Activation insoles help me a lot. Also their Foot Recovery socks. The nerve activating texture in the socks and on the insoles overwrites the hypersensitivity caused by my PN.

That sounds promising. Which brand worked for you? I may not be able to get it since I'm in the Philippines. I don't know yet. I find it complicated. I see some that say put it on in the middle of your back for your feet.
I've legs cramps all my life but now I'm getting these waves of crushing pain in my feet when I lay down. I wear compression socks must days but everything irritates my skin. Including the socks at the top of them. This new pain is much worse than anything I've had before. I'm not sure it's neuropathy. I fear it might be bad circulation. I don't know. I do have venous insufficiency.
