That is where most of the nerves are that go to the toes.
That will stop some pain. I've put them there and it works.

Lidoderms typically need to hit the longer axons to work, and not the end spot where you feel the pain.

Give that a try. They may increase numbness tho..and make walking a bit tricky. So be careful. I use them at night when I need to. But I don't often put on my feet.

I also use Biofreeze on my feet when they burn. Lately the burning has gone way down. The R-lipoic seems to really help with that. Also the theanine must be working too (started that in Aug).
