Is there any help at all for foot numbness in PN

I am one lucky person. My PN is in my legs and feet. I have numbness and tingling in my feet but zero pain. My balance has issues but I still get around ok. I have no idea why I am pain free and others suffer so much. The only thing PN did to me was to retire sooner than later. When you’re touching down on a 6000 ft runway at 120kts you need to get stopped and my left leg didn’t do a good job on the left brake. No cure for PN and there never will be.

I’ll certainly try Amazon for the foot pain, plus B12. What dosage of B12 do you take?
Also, thanks for letting me know about red-light therapy and the mats…..two more examples of expensive snake oil!

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.

Hello again... I have started on your suggestions and would like to hear more from you if you ever read this. I have switched to an anti- inflammatory diet (lost 10 pounds already so yay for that)
I bought a recumbent bike and doing that 6 days a week building up a little bit longer as I go. Cut out caffeine and 90% of Sugar, the only sugar I am having is either from fruit or I do Still use creamer in my herbal Teas and Decaf. I am not sure of the cause of the neuropathy, my AIC is only one decimal over normal So pre diabetes by a hair, 5.7 (5.6 is within normal range) I have taken omeprazole for years So going to try and switch to famatidine.
You mentioned anti-inflammatory Supplements, which ones did you use?
I so much want my feet to get back to normal if there is possibility for this.
I hope you will see this and give more details on what you did because So many say the numbness cant be fixed and I think thats hogwash, they just haven't figured it out yet.
Thank you.

I wrote you a nice reply and then the site erased it. Sigh.
Sorry this one will be short.

I checked reviews and picked this one based on those and price.
Not Suitable for someone over 5 foot 10 even though it says it is. Im 5 foot 6 and fine for me.

I, too, have PN but am blessed with no pain. However, the numbness mainly in my left foot is so debilitating, I can hardly walk. My balance is (scary) non-existent. It’s truly amazing I’ve only had one bad fall.
Very understandable you’re retired(?). I’d be very leery of not being able to hit the brake when necessary!
