Throbbing in foot due to neuropathy

Hi LIsa @techi,

I have times when I can feel what seems like throbbing but it's not really pain but more like tingling. I used to have it more often when I tried some really tight over the calf support stockings. I've found that I can't wear a tight sock at all and since I have clodhoppers for feet (size 14) most sox are 10-13 and I have to look for larger ones. I've recently discovered some really comfy ankle sox made with bamboo fiber. They are super stretchy and soft. I just ordered some of the crew socks made with bamboo fibers and rayon so am anxious to see if they help.

Is the throbbing pain in both feet?

John mostly in my left foot. I had surgery for drop foot. The doctor prescribed tramdol but since it's an opioid l don't know how much longer. I use if for all pain since l am all allergic to all pain meds except that one and morphine. But if you can give me the information on the socks you are ordering l might try them also.

Here's the link on Amazon to the women's version of the same brand (Yomandamor). There are other brands probably as good. I saw a discussion on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy website (https://www.foundationforpn.org/) and bamboo was one of several types of socks that was recommended for people with PN or diabetic PN. The link below is just a search link on Amazon to bring up all of the ones of that brand for women. I got the ankle high black ones and they are really soft and comfy. I just ordered a six pack of another brand for crew height sox to see if they are better than my other sox.
