I don't find menthol helpful. I'm trying frankincense.
Maybe capsaicin 0.05% cream might work to warm your feet. The brand name I use for muscle aches is Neuriterx...good luck !

Does Vick’s Vapor Rub help you?
Michael, I’ve had good results with either Vicks or Peppermint Oil combined with prayer. Merry Christmas!
@michael308 I put Vicks on the bottom of my feet when I have a cough.
It absolutely works.
Aspercreme works for neuropathy pain. However, most of the time I grin and bear it…

Hi, Michael. I've not tried Vicks Vapo Rub, although I'm always on the lookout for ways––not to relieve pain (I'm fortunate in that pain is not one of my symptoms)––but to warm my feet, especially in the morning, and especially in the winter. ––Ray (@ray666)
