Mayo Clinic Info new experience for me-
been treated for severe bursitis with cortisone shots (both hips)--think trauma from shot in one leg (modest residual lymphedema from 5 year old mastectomy) resulted in extensive swelling in ankle/foot. Swelling is down, now have pain in that foot--feels like I am walking on potatoes and have extensive cramping. Is there something I can do to relieve this?

I take magnesium for cramping and r-alpha lipoic acid for nerve pain.
What kind of nerve pain are you treating?
Jim
I have slight scoliosis and spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra) that causes nerve pain in my feet.

Hello @drueann, welcome to Connect. Thank you for sharing a little about yourself. Here are a few conversations happening elsewhere on Connect that might help you get started:
- Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy? http://mayocl.in/2aWCYXq (while it may not be the same type of foot pain you are dealing with a lot of members talk about how they deal with foot pain)
- Swollen foot, http://mayocl.in/2ky8JwC
