Another thing you can try Kris, is to soak the ankles in tepid water with epsom salts. The magnesium in there will get into the ankle somewhat and magnesium blocks the NMDA pain receptors. So it might work for you.

And I hope you are taking a magnesium supplement, it will do that orally as well, when you are not soaking.

My PN is a small fiber neuropathy, in my case this is what gives me COLD-allodynia, COLD gives me terrible pain

I Also have RSD, and ICE or cold gives me the same type of pain

So allways try something new on a very smal place before you soak your limbs in anything!
