I don’t know if this place is
to ask this question. I have PN in the balls of my feet and toes. I have seen on the internet a foot messager called Nooro NMES foot messager. Has anyone heard of this or used one and is it worth the money?

It comes from China. The refund policy is to send back to China. Cost is one half your purchase.
You really need to research the reviews.
I have neuropathy with numbness, tingling and often pain from the bottom of my feet up the back of my legs to and including my buttocks.
I recently purchased an EMS Foot Massager. I got it from the shopping website Temu. It is from China and some people object to using it because of child labor, human rights violations and other issues. It looks exactly like the one advertised for $99.99 online and I paid less than $1000.
I have used it twice so far and it took away my foot pain. There are few directions with it so I looked elsewhere for them. I’m using it 10 minutes, twice a day and will continue doing so. I’m using Level 10.
The device contracts the muscles which increases the circulation of blood. The nerves aren’t getting enough blood so this increases blood flow and decreases pain. Exercise and massage do the same thing.
My pain is worse at night, sometimes very severe. I have back pain so I sleep just in one position once I get settled. That inactivity tends to increase pain. I have decided that the several times I get up at night to use the bathroom I will use the device and see if it will help to reduce pain the rest of the night and allow more sleep.
I did try 5000mg. Broad Spectrum CBD Cream massaged into my feet and lower legs at bedtime. It worked very well the first two nights but only mildly well since then. Since it is so expensive, I plan to use up what I have but not continue after that unless something changes.
I recommend the EMS Foot Massager. It is effective and easy to use.

Our PT gave my husband a different tool - it actually helped and was very cheap!
Buy 4-5 pound bag of dries beans, like pint or red beans. Find a bag they fit in with a good opening - we have a bag that a blanket came in, with a zipper to close it. Put the beans in the bag.
2-3 times a day, open the bag, put your (bare) feet in and move them around -stepping down, rolling feet side to side, burying one foot in the beans & rubbing the top of foot with the other one. The beans stimulate the nerves. You can do this while watching TV, working on the computer, whenever...
Worth a try for a few bucks?
