Cold feet due to neuropathy - need help

I have diopathic Peripheral Neuropathy, not diabetic.

Electric leg warmers would be perfect for me. The only ones I found had to be plugged into a charger all the time—a cable similar to a cell phone charger.

In 1999, my PN started with the balls of my feet numb. My PN symptoms have gone through many changes over the decades!

Now, my problem is that both of my shins feel ice cold. I wear flannel PJ bottoms, which help a bit. I use an electric throw in the living room when in my recliner, and an electric blanket is turned up to maximum heat at night. That is the only way I can bear the pain.

I do take Hydrocodone for PN and arthritis pain.

Can the socks fit in your shoes ok? I’m wearing the supply of socks out that I bought 7 years ago. So old that I don’t recall brand, but I bought several 6 packs of them from Walmart back then once I found they worked for me. I have separate/thicker house socks, but I need something for shoes that are thick enough to help the shoe fit better for support (especially around lower ankle), but not stretch my shoe by being too thick. Of course, main goal is thick enough to help keep feet warm.

How about cool/cold right foot or heat in that foot? My right foot always turned cold of my foot. But walking feel hot. That foot was cold on my right-side. I had a brain-injury 12 years ago from a bicycle accident. Even before that accident was a cool-feeling on that leg. But after that accident turned to cool/cold on the right side and this moment is hor. But when I ghetto sleeping and the. Wake-up is cold

I have terrible cold feet from my PN. I use Life flow, magnesium lotion that I get from Amazon. Be sure you get the lotion and not the oil. I hope this helps. Good luck to you. bcool123

Hi Debbie,
Years ago I bought quite a few pairs of FootJoy low-cut socks from my local golf course shop. They wear so well I still have several unworn pairs. Back then there wasn't a choice of styles but if I were to buy this type of sock again (which I would if I needed the kind you are describing), I'd go for the ProDry Sportlet 2-pack for Women - the one with the 5-star rating.
I sure understand the dilemma of finding the right sock that fits all the criteria!
All the best,
Barb

Hi Debbie, I wear compression socks which are thin and not very warm for my lymphedema so in the winter time I generally slip on a pair of bamboo stretchy socks over the top. This gives me a little more thickness and helps keep the feet a little warmer. On the really cold days when I have to be outside I also wear Hot Sockee - Neoprene Toe Warmers which keep the heat in the front half of my foot - https://www.amazon.com/Hot-Sockee-Neoprene-Warmers-Construction/dp/B076B56FPD/. There are many brands and types of bamboo socks available on Amazon but I haven't seen any locally at stores here.

Hi, I have Sjögren’s syndrome (at least that’s what they tell me) small nerve fiber sensory neuropathy x20 years. I would say wear socks to bed. Put the rice bags in first to warm the bed before you get in. I can’t sleep without doing that. There are rice filled slippers you can heat in the microwave that work great. They’re not for walking around in, just sitting. They goes on the floor and you put your feet inside. If they are burning, don’t use electric blankets. They can make the neuropathy worse. I didn’t know that and found out the hard way. Best of luck!

They are called Bed Buddy moist heat foot warmers; they come in different scents. I bought lavender mint for sleep on Amazon.

Yes, I can wear them with my shoes unless I buy the fuzzys I sleep in. They are very soft.
