Neuropathy moving from feet to legs

Thank you for replying. Can you use this cream on your hands? My numbness is severe there and it’s hard to find something that is effective there. I’m not sure I can get this cream here as an OTC either. I will ask my doctor about it. I live in Canada so it may be unavailable. You sound like you are living well with this illness. I am 75 now so I’m not as active as you are.I need to use a walker and I’m unable to get along without it. All the best to you. Hugs.

I think you could use the Lidocaine 4% cream on your hands too! Good move in asking your doctor about the cream! I bet you could find it on e-bay,or Amazon.com. If you are a prime member on Amazon, they include free shipping!
My sister, 79, has PN really bad in her legs! She, also, has to use a walker to get around. She has started physical therapy, about 2 months ago and is working with 10 pound weights.
Hope this helps, thanks for your reply. Good Luck, Pat
P.S. make sure the cream has NO methanol in it!
