Socks - What helps with Neuropathy?

My legs and feet feel cold to me, but not to the touch. They can feel like I am sitting with my feet in the refrigerator, but to touch them they are warm. So it is apparently just how I am 'sensing' that they feel. I can be outside in 90 degree weather, hot and sweaty, but my feel are cold. It's really weird. I usually wear wool knee socks, somewhat tight but not compression. They seem to always be too tight and make my legs swell. at night I wear 2 pair of wool socks that fit loosely. But none of this will make my feel actually 'feel' warm to me. @pat79

Hi,
When I read some of our posts, I have to check twice to see if I said it, or did someone else?
The first part of this post was just what I have experienced.
We all do the trail and error routine, but after trying many, many different actions, tricks, methods, this is the best for my feet so far at night. This is what I do to be able to sleep with my awful %$@#$*^ foot pain. First I rub THC ointment on my feet. (Yes, I tried to skip that part because it it a bother, and pricey, but it helps, so I do it). Then I put on a pair of heavy, very loose acrylic socks. In bed, (summer and winter) I have a heating pad (low heat) that I lay my feet on. I make myself stay still until I feel the pain lessen. Just sharing and wish you less pain!! You WILL find something that helps!!
