Hi Rick- I have PN from spinal issues, my feet are also numb and hurt when up on them. I found 2 shoe brands for inside and outside wearing that really help. Inside: Uggs Koolaburra- they have stiff sides and back, so they are easy to push on/off and don’t slide out of place or semi-off without you knowing. They have a low non- skid rubber bottom, which really helps with safety on all indoor surfaces. They have a mesh-top so are “breathable” and a low “fluff”sheepskin-type lining which adds to the cushioning and comfort. For outside shoes- I have Brooks running shoes with mesh top (Dick’s Sporting Goods) and also 2 pairs of “casual” from Orthofeet “ (online shopping)- they come with cushion inserts to set up as you prefer, a wide toe box and very comfortable cushioned soles.
Have you made your home safer? Suggest remove all throw rugs, use a shower mat, careful on stairs- all because you’re not feeling things on your feet as you once did. Good luck and welcome!
