With numbness in your feet, do you still drive normally (even though you have trouble feeling the accelerator)?? does this cream take the numbness away so you have normal feeling? can you walk normally (without aids)? can to move both ankles and wiggle toes??

This combination is mixed into a cream that I apply to my feet when they start giving trouble. The tube says apply up to five times a day, but, thank God, I haven't had to use it that often. I usually apply it in the morning, especially if I plan on a lot of walking (like Christmas shopping). In doing so, it relieves both my feet, and hands. There is still some lingering numbness in the soles of my feet, but it is managable. Hope you find something that works for you. I know my biggest problem with numbness in my feet is not being able to feel the acellerator in my car. Sheesh!!!
