As we age, things change. Injuries take longer to heal, nerves get more sensitive to damage, etc.

Many people have compressive issues. They can be from metabolic causes (thyroid/diabetes) or from mechanical compressions.

If you take the nutrients to help your nerves heal, if this is a simple compressive issue, they will get better, or at least not progress further.

B12, B-complex, fish oil, provide the methylation enhancement to fix myelin damage.

Acetyl carnitine, CoQ-10 and r-lipoic acid will help the mitochrondria function better.

If you drink alcohol--you need to consider benfotiamine (a form of thiamine).

Magnesium and your amino acids can improve blood flow to the feet.

If you smoke, you need to really quit. (men especially who smoke can get peripheral artery disease, more than females, but both sexes are at risk from smoking).
