When I wake up in the middle of the night with burning feet, I cut a 5% Lidocaine patch into two pieces and put one half on the bottom of each foot. In the morning the burning is gone. I don't know if this will help anyone else but hope it does. 5% Lidocaine patches require a prescription

Good morning @cue. What a simple and effective tip for those of us who need a little help to enjoy our nighttime dreams and get much-needed sleep.. If you have a Lidocaine-based compound you could probably make your own patch. Thanks for the tip.

What other medications or treatments do you find effective?

May you be content and happy.
Chris
