Another thing is I am a firm believer in training the mind. Apparently the brain can get into the habit of feeling pain when there is no pain. I would watch neuroscientist Vilayanur Ramachandran on **.to see him explain getting rid of pain from phantom limbs. I am hopeful that with capsaicin that wearing out the pain receptors can teach the brain that the nerve is healed.

Also you could stop carrying stuff in your pocket. The weight could be adding pressure to the nerve or dragging the pants down and adding pressure to the nerve that way. You could wear overalls.

And I would stay away from sugar. Diabetics have a difficult time with neuropathy and I found a doctor online with diabetes addicted to sugar who said sugar is a poison.
