Agree that this condition needs more publicity especially among the medical,community. I was undiagnosed for years and as a result suffered permanent nerve damage and tissue loss. In my case no ointment steroid, diet, or other treatment will bring back the lost tissue or the painful nerve damage.
I have a regime where a very limited use of a steroid ointment will prevent flare ups, and oral medication will control the nerve pain. I am not a diabetic. Hope you find your best solutions.
