Gabapentin is the only pain drug that I have tried. I've not done any therapies, acupunture or massages, although I sometimes rub my feet when they are burning and it seems to help temporarily sometimes. Historically, feet have not been overly sensitive to touch...they just burn primarily. As far as exercising goes, sometimes taking a walk seems to help them, but it's not a given. I've theorized that maybe the increased circulation from the walk might help, but I don't know.
