I have very painful neuropathy in my feet. I am in so much pain every day.I have tried all kinds of creams and lotions and nothing works. Can someone give me some advise how to stop this terrible pain? I have to put ice packs on them at night to relieve them a little.

See your doctor and ask for a referral to see a neurologist. If this isn't an option, ask your doctor for a prescription for something like gabapentin to help dull the pain. You can also ask them about taking alpha lipoic acid, it's an OTC supplement that may help lessen the pain as well. I'm taking both of them, and while the pain and numbness is always there, it's not as bad as it has been in the past.
