My feet do not "burn" but its painful. Its like a hard object pressing at the sides of my ankles. Its difficult to describe. I cannot stand for a long time. But, I exercise regularly. I walk on the treadmill for 30-35 mins on speed of "3" and incline of "7". On some days, when I cannot tolerate the treadmill, I walk outdoor. The strange thing with me is when I start walking, the pain becomes bearable.

I think exercise becomes bearable to me is because at night, either I soaked my feet in warm water with epsom salt or use the Epsom It lotion (courtesy of Mrs.D). I do that every night to make moving bearable for me. Actually, as an added benefit for me the Epsom It Lotion has lessened the stiffness of my fingers.

Even how painful my feet are, I always make it a point to move around. It may not improve my PN but it surely helps my total well-being.
