Alan's sister has the exact same thing as Alan
 
My husband's sister (who formerly was diagnosed with Morton's Neuroma) and has now been diagnosed with Neuropathy, just described her symtoms to me. Exact same as Alan, same pain between certain toes. She uses various creams, Bio Freeze (which helps her tremendouslY)

She also uses this gel toe thing (I think she got it from Dream Products) that she places in the freezer and it fits between her toes and it gives her relief.

Do any of you know what she is referring to? I went online and only found toe separators and toe cushions but nothing that says "Put in the freezer and it will cool burning toes".

Anyone know of such an item?

Thanks much

Melody

Mel, just type in "gel toes" at Amazon...

People with circulation problems should not use cold on their feet for long periods of time, however, as it could lead to damage of the tissues.

Hi. Mrs. D.
\
\Alan doesn't have any circulation problems. That I know of. I will run this by Dr. Fred. But thanks so much. Going to amazon right now.

Thanks much

Mrs. D.

Just typed in Gel Toes. Got this page

Amazon.com: GEL TOES

You got yoga toes, gel inserts, toe separators, toe cushions, etc.

Point me in the right direction.

His sister doesn't remember what hers were called. I'm going to go to Dream Products and look online at their catalog and see if it mentions gel toes.

Thanks much

Hi.

Just wanted to update. Alan's sister purchased two of these gel toes things and said I should be getting them by Friday.

I'll make a video of him using these.

This should be interesting.

Thanks much
