Hi @ashlely, Welcome to Mayo Connect. I also have non diebetic peripheral neuropathy and only have numbness but without pain in the feet and ankles. Thank you for sharing your tip about taking care of the feet - it's really important for those of us with PN of any diagnosis. I wear socks to bed after rubbing my feet together one night a few years ago and tearing open a blood vein near the surface of the ankle during the night. I woke up to go to the bathroom and felt the bed was wet near my feet but didn't realize it was blood. Then when in the bathroom I looked at my feet and noticed blood spray coming out of my ankle. The paramedics were able to stop the bleeding but took me to the ER anyway. Moral of my story is to keep the toenails trimmed and wear socks if you like to rub your feet together.
