Pinched or compressed nerves can cause pain and nerve damage and possibly symptoms you mention but that is something you would need to discuss with your doctor or a neurologist and have some specific tests done to check. My best advice is probably to keep doing what you are doing now - looking for information and learning as much as you can about your health condition. This will help you become a better advocate for your health and hopefully help find treatments that will help your symptoms. My two go to websites for neuropathy information are:

Neuropathy Commons: https://neuropathycommons.org/
The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy: https://www.foundationforpn.org/

You mentioned your doctor said the neuropathy was probably caused by alcohol consumption and that you made diet and lifestyle changes the past two years but you still have the symptoms. Have you discussed possible vitamin deficiencies with your neurologist as part of his diagnosis?

Here's an article that discusses possible supplements to help - Management of alcohol-induced peripheral neuropathy: https://journals.lww.com/nursingmadeincrediblyeasy/fulltext/2019/11000/management_of_alcohol_induced_peripheral.7.aspx
