Has anyone found anything that helps constant tingling in the feet and

Posted by joypalmer1 @joypalmer1, 3 days ago

I have been a part of this group for a few years. I am just addressing my issue once again to see if there have been any new developments. Has anybody found anything that helps the tingling in the feet and hands. The tingling also sometimes goes up my calves. I don’t have pain, but the constant tingling is so disturbing. Has anyone found anything that helps? The neurologists don’t know what caused this.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I'm trying not to sound like a jerk, but consider your self lucky if you only feel tingling and don't have any pain. The vast majority of us would gladly trade places with you. If your doctors can't determine it's cause, then you have idiopathic tingling in your hands and feet. I'm sure there's a real medical term for it. I don't know how old you are, but it may progress and become painful in the future.
Good luck.

I have a compound pain cream that I use from my neurologist.

Does it help with tingling, or is it for pain?

Does it have a name? Is there any way that you I could go to my family doctor to get it if you could tell me what it is?

It is for neuropathy. I got the prescription through my neurologist.
Prescription
cream
2% Bacflofen - muscle relaxer
6% gabapentin
10% ketamine HCL- anesthesia
2% cyclobenzaprine- muscle relaxer
10% Diclofenac Sodium- anti inflammatory
2.5% tetracaine HCL- long lasting lidocaine
25% propylene
10% lipoderm

I am allergic to gabapentin and baclofen but can take by cream.
It does NOT make you high or drowsy. My sisters and friends have tried it and liked it. My friend with MS uses this also. She likes it because it does not affect the brain or cognitive abilities.
I put it on over sized socks over it. I have neuropathy pain in my ribs works there and neuropathy pain in my lower back. My hands cramp up really bad and it works on my hands.

What’s the name of this cream?

@joypalmer1
Did you have a skin punch biopsy of thigh and ankle to test for small fiber neuropathy? Did you have updated bloodwork to check for diabetes, vitamin deficiencies/toxicities? Did you have EMG/nerve conduction studies of your upper and lower limbs and MRI of your brain/cervical spine and lumbar spine?

What have you already tried for treatments?

I have/had the same symptoms.
I take MediNox Pro, Alpha Lipoic Acid, 1 ounce of Olive/Avacado oil morning and night, other supplements, and use my tens unit from Oxiline.com. Walk around often. Use Copper brand compression sleeves around your ankles. Cut carbs. I take other supplements for various things. My tingling is greatly reduced. Keep searching and trying things.

WOW! Following a brain bleed stroke and PN I experience similar symptoms and if I live long enough for them to be unbearable it will be good to have this prescription at hand. Thank you!

There is not a name for it. The neurologist just calls it into the compounding pharmacy with the amounts shown. I also take soma 350 and skelaxon. 800 mgs orally.
