Margaret Callaghan. I have neuropathy in my left leg and foot resulting from spine fusion surgery in 2016.
I have been getting stabbing sharp electric shock type pains in my foot and wondered if anyone else gets these. I have tried ice and heat which help a little. Please let me know of any remedies. Thank you

Welcome @matt2374, You might find it helpful to scan through the different discussions related to electric shock type pain. Here's a search link that lists the discussions and comments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=electric+shocks+feet.

Since you mentioned the neuropathy was a result of spine fusion surgery, I'm wondering if Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) might be an option. There is a discussion started by @jenniferhunter on MFR if you would like to learn more about MFR - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/.
