Hello, I am using some of these exercises shown in a YouTube video titled, "Exercises for Peripheral Neuropathy in the Feet and Legs" by Cancer Rehab PT channel. I can't include a link since this discussion system won't allow it. But, if you search you should find it.

I also added a few things for sensation stimulus, which I learned about from prompting Claude AI to research for me.
- I use sonic electric toothbrush with the plastic cap on. I don't use the brissles, but instead use the vibration and pass it over the problem areas. I do the same on the good foot and go back and forth with my eyes closed.
- I place a wide head back scrubber brush on the floor and rub my foot over it. Again, I do the same with the good foot to help the brain image how it's suppose to be normal.
- I have a bucket of rice and place my foot in it flexing the toes through the rice.
- I haven't tried temperature yet, but the idea is to switch between hot and cold. I just bought a couple of buckets, one for warm water and one for cold and will soak my foot back and forth.

The AI research says there's little information, if any, on whether any of these will help the nerves. The idea is not nerve regeneration but neuroplasticity with the goal of collateral sprouting or cross‐innervation or collateral branching of intact axons from a healthier adjacent nerve root or fiber into the denervated territory. This means nerves next door may learn to cross over to help the dead nerves. Again, I have no proof this really works and the studies on this are really thin.
