We who have numbness sensations or pain or burning etc. in the feet need to do all we can to reduce inflammation in the body and to increase circulation in the legs and feet.

3 yrs. ago I had terrible feet issues from numbness to sharp pains, burning etc. I changed to an anti-inflammatory diet (which means no sugar, caffeine or processed foods or fried foods) - inflammation just irritates the nerves all over the body = and added anti-inflammatory supplements, and importantly, started exercises for the legs and feet that increase circulation. Walking when I can, using an elliptical pedaling device, using vibration pad, etc. It has to be done daily and same with diet and supplements, since they ALL work together to lower inflammation in the body and no "glucose spikes" (sugar spikes) which increase inflammation.

Today, 75-80% of my feet symptoms are gone. I also switched to a much better shoe, with good support, large toe box and soft sides and top. Increasing circulation to the legs and feet daily and eating a low-inflammatory diet are key to preventing old nerves from continuing to die and promoting the growth of new, healthy nerves.
