Hi @sunnyflower it is only a theory. I felt the burning pain more so in the colder climate. I am heat sensitive so the cooler temperatures are more comforting to me. I didn’t realize sustained cold temperatures would cause more burning pain in my lower leg. I am more careful now knowing that especially for the winter Florida months. Luckily it doesn’t get extremely cold here. In fact in the last couple of days the temperatures here have risen to near 80. With that said, both my feet felt too warm. I had to remove my socks to be comfortable. I did notice by touch my neuropathy foot felt cooler although it seemed burning. The lower limb with the neuropathy will always have a cooler feeling to the normal limb no matter the surrounding temperature. I have noticed the burning pain more so with cold temperatures and warm temperatures. In between seemed better for my neuropathy.
