Thanks for everybody’s input. I have been experiencing feet numbness for about a year now on the upper side of my foot just below my baby toe toes. I see a commercial almost every day about neuropathy. It looks like they’ve hooked the patient up to tens unit. I purchased one in a while ago for back pain which helped a lot so I’ve been using it on my feet along with soaks with hydrogen peroxide in the water. I’ve also been taking food grade hydrogen peroxide diluted with distilled water daily. It’s supposed to help with all Cellular issues as well as nerve issues. I’ve been doing the routine now for about six months along with liquid magnesium, vitamin D and turmeric tea. So far so good it hasn’t progressed and I don’t seem to have the numbness like I did when it first started. Thank God, I haven’t experienced any pain per se this occasional achiness of which I’ll use a massage device on my feet to help with that. I hope this helps and I’ll continue reading what others are doing.

Hello @nscaccia, Welcome to Connect. You might want to discuss the hydrogen peroxide with your doctor. It's great that you are reading and learning what others are doing to help their neuropathy. I shared my neuropathy journey in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/310341/.

"There’s no scientific evidence that drinking hydrogen peroxide yields benefits. Plus, doing so is linked to dangerous side effects, including breathing problems, severe gut damage, and death."

You might find this article on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy helpful for learning what some patients have found helpful and is more evidence based.

Have you been diagnosed with neuropathy?

@nscaccia Did your doctor tell you to use hydrogen peroxide for soaking and drinking? Thank you.
