Yes, I’ve got neuropathy & arthritis in both feet & I’ve struggled for 26 years with it. Nothing has helped the pain,stabbing,numbness,tingling, etc. What do you do for it?

Welcome @tisha01, You are not alone. Here's a search of Connect showing other members who have mentioned the same symptoms you mentioned - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/comments/.

I only suffer from numbness and tingling that has gradually grown worse since my late 40s. There really is no medication that helps with the numbness but if you have pain, there are a lot of different treatments but none of them work for everyone with neuropathy (my non medical opinion). The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy is a good place to learn more about the different treatments - https://www.foundationforpn.org/therapies/.

I think one of the members who have similar symptoms mentioned Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) provided some relief for their symptoms. Here's a discussion on MFR where others have shared their experience:

Do you mind sharing what you have tried for treatments?
