@artemis1886 - I'm with you on the dead nerve. I've never read any research that a dead nerve can be brought back to life. A compressed or damaged nerve may be a different story and why there are so many so called cures out there. Some treatments do help heal damaged nerves (just my humble non-medical opinion) and surgery may help with a compressed nerve. That's really why I started taking supplements back in 2016 after being diagnosed with idiopathic small fiber PN. I still have neuropathy but my legs and feet feel much better than they did in 2016 when I started but the numbness is still there along with some tingling, just not as bad as it used to be. Lots of research out there on the question "can nerves regenerate" but I don't think there is any consensus - https://scholar.google.com/scholar. (again, just my opinion).
Mayo Clinic has a fairly comprehensive article on the topic that makes it easier for me to understand:
