Well since there are some bulges , I might consider trying some expert chiropractic, just in case it is coming from the spine.
MDs rarely suggest that option, for them it is rx more meds, or maybe some PT, or some procedure..

If the spine is part of it, you just may get some relief..

Thanks. I've been going to physical therapy for the last 7 weeks. She has "unloaded" my T-spine and my L-spine. Today was my last visit. I haven't really seen an appreciable difference. We talked about a chiropractor. Her concern was that chiropractors like to "pop"your back. She has seen folks come in to her who have had their backs popped numerous times and the ligaments are so stretched that there is not to work with any more. After all this and the tingling/itching I feel in my right foot (especially), which sort of feels like the zingers I get but much more low grade, I am not convinced that the zingers are a manifestation of the PN, but for some reason they are positional. I don't know. I just don't know.

Unfortunately that is kind of the standard line , seems there is a division or competition of MDs & PTs vs DC..

I did say expert chiropractic, meaning extra training, knowledgeable, highly skilled... You don't have to let any DC pop your back numerous times..

I did go for 6 years as I am hyper mobile and things moved out of alignment quite easily & it took so long due to my chronic RSI injuries and muscle spasms and long time misalignments.
I finally got to a stable place and just go for a yearly check up now.
