@cordy Welcome and thank you John for asking me to chime in Cordy I have a fractured L2 refused surgery but I can move and the pain is doable with what helps me Ice is an anti inflammatory as well as Golden Milk as @fresh air talked about Back to my neuropathy it's not in my feet but in my thighs as the nerves that go into my legs are affected by my fracture so I have nerve pain and numbness at times .I do naturel stuff like I use a Tens unit on the outside of the body not internal as Jennifer explained I use heat after the ice as heat is bringing blood to the service 15 minutes each ice first .A friend had neuropathy in her feet she said the feet exercises help stretching them Dr had me on Gabapentin but it affected my mental state
