Worth visiting Mayo Clinic for evaluation of idiopathic neuropathy?

Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post.
I have found that over-the-counter 4% lidocaine topical cream helps at bedtime when significant burning is present in a localized area.
Do you have any information on the daytime use of compression stockings on nightime pain?

@neurojudy - I use compression socks during the daytime to help control leg swelling from lymphedema. When I take them off before sleeping, my legs do feel much better but I don't have neuropathy pain symptoms, just numbness and some tingling. I also use 4% lidocaine cream on my shoulders for arthritis pain and it really helps. Good to hear that it helps you too.
