My feet and lower legs are affected by PN, the left foot hurts so much more and burns and has also turned to the left and I have to be careful my foot does not drag and trip me when I walk. I am also recovering from a car accident last July whee I broke my back and just now being able to walk again with use of cane and at times around the house without a cane. I take Neurotine for the PN. Needless to say at times even before accident I was unsteady on my feet.
