I have very bad ankle Neuropathy I don’t know what to do. I live in New York. It was diagnosis peripheral neuropathy, but I also think there’s something else going on because it’s in the joint and it’s chronic pain.

Hello @john1429, Welcome to Connect. It can be pretty scary when you are not sure what is going on and don't know what to do. You mentioned it was diagnosed as peripheral neuropathy. Mayo Clinic has some information explaining possible symptoms and causes here - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/peripheral-neuropathy/symptoms-causes/syc-20352061.

Is the chronic pain only in one ankle? Have you had any injuries or trauma to the bad ankle?
