Peripheral Neuropathy Relief in the Feet & Legs - Ask Doctor Jo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 чер 2024
- Peripheral neuropathy is basically when you have damage to your peripheral nerves from either a trauma or disease. This can cause your hands and/or feet become numb and tingly. I'll focus on the feet/legs for this video. See Doctor Jo’s blog post about this at: www.askdoctorjo.com/peripheral...
Peripheral neuropathy can be caused from diabetes, medications, or even chemotherapy, as well as many other things. Having good flexibility and strength in these areas will help.
The first stretch will be a calf stretch. Sit on the ground with your legs straight out in front of you. You can bend the leg you are not stretching towards you. Put a belt, towel, or dog leash around the ball of your foot. Keep your back and knee straight, and relax your ankle. Pull your foot towards you with the strap until you feel a stretch. Hold this for 30 seconds, and do it three times on each side.
Next are ankle pumps. With your legs straight out in front of you, place a roll just under your ankle so your heel can move freely. Trying to keep your leg straight and moving only at your ankle, pull your foot up towards you, and then push it down like you are pushing on a peddle. Then you will do ankle circles. Again, try not to move your whole leg. Keep the movement at the ankle. Do ten one direction, and then reverse it and do ten the other direction.
Now you will do a simple straight leg raise (SLR). You want to squeeze your muscles tight to lock out the knee and pull your toes towards your head to keep the whole leg straight. This will work your hip flexor muscles when you lift your leg off the ground. Use slow controlled movements to make sure you are using the muscles and not momentum. Start off with ten, and work your way up.
Then, you are going to lie on your side. The top leg is going to stay straight and pull your toes up towards you. Keep your body in a straight line as well. This is going to work your hip abductor muscles. Then you are going to work the bottom leg working your hip adductor muscles. Same as above, keep the leg straight. Start with ten of each of these, and do both sides.
In standing, you will do a heel/toe raise off the ground. Stand with your feet about shoulder width apart, come up on your toes as high as you can. Try not to lean forward, but bring your body straight up and slowly come back down. Push off as much as you can so your heel leaves the ground. Then lift your toes off the ground, alternating back and forth. Start off with ten and work your way up to 20-25.
The last exercise will be a balance series. Stand on one foot, but hold onto something sturdy. Try to balance for 30 seconds to a minute. When that becomes easy, just use one finger one each side. Then just one finger for balance, and finally try balancing without holding on at all.

My nerves are causing pain to my right leg
Excellent Doctor, thanks.
Diabetes run in my family, I had my doctor check several times. No diabetes but I have strong symptoms. I’ve been having this tingly, weird feeling. I’ve googled and this came up. I’ve tried this exercise and it’s amaaaazing. I tried having my husband massage but only made it worse. Thank you for this video.
In 2014 I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. For the past four years life has been very challenging, being only 22, not settled in a place for more than 5 months at a time, living with abusive family and not being able to afford medical for my condition. I have been living insulin free for over a year, but complications kicked in, i struggle to walk, i fall when i try, i cannot jump or lift heavy things or i fall. My legs are dying fast. I tried these exercises this morning and gave it about two hours and tried again, the results are very very amazing. It did not fix the problem but it gave me the ability to stretch and walk around for a bit without falling. I feel the more i do this, the better it is going to get! Thank you for teaching me something that 8 Specialists ive been seeing these last 4 years wasnt able to teach me. Its awfully sad how the medical business now days is more about the money than it is about the Patient.
You're welcome. I'm glad they are helping. Sorry you haven't gotten much help from your doctors. Also, if you happen to have access to a pool, often water walking is very helpful as well. Good luck.

Andrea how are you feeling now?
@@traciefishburn I'm also wondering.. Hope she is okay..
Andrea, I hope u are doing well🙏🙏
Just reading all these comments shows how much people are suffering. Wow, I’m praying for you all. I get sharp pins and needles pain and numbness on left thigh when I get up each day but it goes away for the most part when I stay active throughout the day. I will even do like 50 continuous squats throughout the day to pump thigh muscles and it works.
Thank you for the kind sentiments, Mike...Hope you are feeling well.
Hows your neuropathy now a days any improvement also are you diabetic?
Very nice , Mike. Thank you

I started doing these activities only five days ago, and I am amazed by the huge positive effect that it has caused on my feet. More than 80% of the tingling and burning sensations that I used to feel, has gone.
Thank you Dr Jo.
You're welcome. Glad they are helping.
This genuinely worked !! I’ve had tingling and extreme pain for two days. It started escalating from my feet to my whole legs and after doing those stretches the tingling feeling has gone !! Highly recommend!!!
@@bh613 any further improvement
I was diagnosed with PN 3 months ago and I’m nearly going out of my mind with the burning, numbness and tingling sensation. The pain is relentless and debilitating. I’m going to try your routine, please pray for me.
How’s your pain these days? Did you do these stretches?
@@kylorenthehusky2584 my pain is relentless 24/7. After a Ct scan, looks like I need a disc replacement among other things causing a pinched nerve. I’m pretty scared to be honest.

@@kylorenthehusky2584 thank you so much. I’m sorry for replying so late.
OMG - I used to be super athletic , playing soccer, basketball, biking, softball but PN has stopped from enjoying that and these exercises are exactly what I need to start doing to get back a sense of balance. Thank you so much.
You're welcome. Good luck.

This exercise already took my pain away. I hope it keeps working
It somewhat comforts me to know I am not alone with my chronic pain . I was diagnosed with M.S 30 years ago , and 5 years ago with neuropathy and trigeminal neuralgia . I should be in a wheel chair by now , but what helped me to stay on my feel and still be able to walk ( not very good but walking) is doing inner work and healing traumas and learning to connect with myself . I still have a lot of pain , and even though it’s also physical , there is always an emotional and mental connection to every physical condition . So my work is not done , but I have seen improvement throughout the years as a result of my spiritual and inner work . I know it works because I also work with others for 30 years . So I hope someone will take something from what I wrote and it helps that person ❤️
Hi Ofra, that's really beautiful and encouraging to hear. I'd love to help be a support for you, and vice versa, if you're interested!
Thank so much for letting me know that spiritual healing does work. I tried it for a while for lupus neuropathy but then stopped, but know I will start once again. Thank you for encouraging 💫⚡️✨🌙🌈
Sylvia take care , wishing you much improvement .. be well !
Hello Ofra Peters your message gave me hope, i started to feel pins and needles and numbness like 2 months, im searching what to do to help ease this sensations. I read your message what could not understood everything can you message me to explain it with more details. Thank you
Good for you 👏👏👏👏
Dr. Jo....I cannot thank you enough for these stretches! They help get me through the day!
You're welcome! I'm glad they helped.
Are they still helping after a year
@@javidtan3167 absolutely
Your methods of exercise are simple and easy to follow. I am a MD. Appreciate your efforts to teach people.
Thanks.
Thank you! You did a great job explaining these exercises . I appreciate the information!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much!! Simple yet very effective. I appreciate the uncomplicated instructions.😀
Nice
I have been suffering from this since a 6 week hospitalization for Diabetic pancreatitis. I am SO glad I found this channel
I hope they help.
My PN has come on very rapidly. I’ve been sort of being treated for it. By that, I mean I’ve seen my doctor several times over the past 9 months and finally got a referral to a specialist as we can’t seem to work out what is causing it to continue to get worse. These stretches have given me the best relief I’ve had in all that time. So simple and easy, but the returns are a godsend. Thank you for this. There are so many of us living with this and we all know how life altering it is both mentally and physically. It certainly didn’t help my mental state as I was staying pretty tightly isolated during this pandemic. That’s an awful lot of time to be alone with nothing, but a wall of constant pain. I had my wonderful family with me on our bubble and they’ve been very patient and understanding, but you still feel very alone in that pain. I wish everyone who finds this the very best of luck. Hopefully, a cure can be found and we won’t just be in mitigation mode. Again, thank you very much for these stretches.
You're welcome.
Hi Jo glad I found your channel.
I just watch the video because I have numbs legs whole day. Thank you so much it helps me a lot. While having my work, I do the stretching of my leg.
You're welcome.
Dr. Jo, respectfully, thank you for your kind & loving attitude.
You're welcome.

Thank you very much for showing these exercises. Helping me a lot, I’m diabetic. Thanks again Doctor Jo
You're welcome. Good luck.
OMG perfect timing...so many problems with feet and angles starting on this daily TODAY...thank you so much xx
You're welcome.
Thank you! I had an insane amount of nerve pain today after having a fever. Nothing was calming my nerves not even peppermint oil. This finally relaxed me enough to finally be able to sleep. I have Sjogrens and really itchy skin too and constant muscle spasms. I'm looking forward to trying this while also working w my doctor. God bless you
You're welcome!
Thank you so much!! I love you!! Have had trouble with dull numb pain in my feet and ankles for months. After just two days of your techniques, I already have a big noticeable improvement!
You're welcome!
@@AskDoctorJo wat can I do to do calf raises?
Just keep g
Trying?
Yes Excersize helps. The more I walk my Service K 9 during the day the less pain I have especially at night. That is when the pains in my feet are the worse. Keep moving step by step. I have to keep something that is comfortable on my feet at all times other wise the pain increases. Wear something on feet even when in bed; keeps pains undercontrol. I don't take pain meds and won't do pain meds.
Not only was the nerve pain painful, but probably worse was the stress it caused me. I of course googled every linked disease, EVEN THOUGH I suspected the issue was stemming from my back and down my legs.
Stretching made ALL the difference in the world! Thanks for the video, that redirected me, into the direction I knew. Feels great to not have the pain! If I sense it coming on I just take time to stretch. Usually it first hurts in my left foot, so I stretch the right side of my back and hip! 😁
You're welcome.

My feet legs have been burning and painful especially at night but during this heat wave during the day. I tried some of your exercises in the middle of the night and got such relief that I was able to fall asleep again without pain. Many thanks.
You’re welcome.
Same. Pleasantly surprised.
I already do some of these moves, just naturally, to try and lesson the pain in my feet. Your video is excellent and I really like your socks. Thank you for this useful information, Dr. Jo.
You're welcome.
My case is absolutely excruciating. Exercises like this, and I’ve done them before, seem to help the body as a whole, but in the affected areas, it causes a great deal of lingering pain. I go to physical therapy for the expressed purpose of avoiding foot amputation. I’m not diabetic, I’m idiopathic. My veins are starting to pop out and give me another excruciating symptom. Watching for circulation problems and discoloration on and by the veins. The pain progresses over the years. I’ve had it for 12. I wish everyone the best. Keep exercising but listen to your body and don’t overdo it, that has consequences. And always keep in mind that exercising in the pool works, especially for severe cases like mine. Keep up the good work, doc. The neuropathy community needs help! Bruce
Thanks. Aquatic therapy is definitely a great option to get movement and improve circulation without too much impact that will increase the pain.
it is very useful. the pain relieved just in one day after trying this
thank you ever so, simple easy things I can do myself !
You're welcome.
Your exercises are awesome I've been working out over 40 years and there's always something you can learn
Thanks!
Thank you for such a straightforward explanation of these exercises. Will be incorporating them into my daily movement. Might you possibly create a similar video for neuropathy in the hands and arms?
You're welcome, and thanks. Yes, I have one for the hands as well. You can find it at: ua-cam.com/users/askdoctorjo

This is helpful. Do you have a video with specific exercises for someone who is elderly?
Your exercises help with the numbness, balancing, and got my hip and lower abs smaller.
I make a habit of doing the exercises even if I was sitting watch TV, just rotate my angles and move them up and down.

I don’t have tingling in my feet but the skin on the bottom feels tight and in the evening especially in bed they feel very hot.
Wow! More exercises that directly affect me and my health issues.
It's amazing that since I subscribed, I have received more helpful information from you than I ever did from my MD. He simply diagnosed my neuropathy and sent me on my way. All he ever wanted to do was give me prescriptions, never any therapy which is why I stopped going to see him 4 years ago.
Thank you for improving my life.
You're welcome!! Good luck.
AskDoctorJo
The luck is when I found your videos. My health improving is not luck, it's practicing your stretches!
Tom thumb...very wise (unless you get serious issues with your pain)..I`m now on Zomorph (Morphine capsules) ,but I still need extra relief.Once you start on the road of the really strong meds ,you only tend to need to increase them ,as your body gets accustomed to them.Love these videos ,because even though my pain can be severe ,exercises really help with numbness ,or when you seize up.Glad you`re feeling better!!
Yep Tom, I find Drs really don't know all that much. You have to advocate for yourself and demand referrals to physical therapy and neurology. Drs are so specialized these days it takes months and sometimes years to get a true diagnosis of one's condition. I also use the internet and youtube to do my own research. I had a great endocronigist who would google things during my visit with him when I asked specific questions. LOL Too bad he has left my clinic he really was a good doctor.
TheHappyheart77 I'm OFF morphine. I "thought" it was helping. But my PCP explained the nerve receptors become dull due to the narcotics. I had thought "bull", but decided to go off the morphine. Note: she was not in favor of my doing so, but I no longer wanted to feel and be limited by them. I cut back safely, but off them. She's impressed lol so am i!!! It's been close to 18 months. If you research it and have support,,,,for me I DO feel much better.
These are good.
Thank you .. yr presentation is vrry good.. pls go ahead and upload more for all exercises you are experienced with.God Bless You.

I have been suffering with Neuropathy since AUG 2020 after a really bad covid fight that almost killed me and got me diagnosed with diabetes. I have been trying all kinds of things and honestly, while I get some minor temporary relief, I can clearly tell I am not actively combating the pain, just making it hurt less for a few hours.
I have struggled to find any clear and honest assistance, either paid for while in Dr offices or searching online on my own. Just lots of gimmicks for sale or snake oil procedures.
This morning I am trying your stretch routine. I am going to stick with it religiously for the next 2 weeks and come back here with my results.
If nothing else, thank you creating honest helpful content in a sea of get rich schemes for this condition. It's such a frustrating thing to live with and demoralizing when searching for results and all you see are get rich predators. So, thank you for this.
See you in 2 weeks.
You're welcome. I hope they help.
Thank you for sharing with all of us so generously. I am happy and glad for others to find these exercises to deal with pain in my feet and legs. This is so helpful.

I've had severe case twenty years now and your right. Legs first and arms started about 8 years ago. It's the worst pain and living conditions that's not terminal. I've been on fentyanl patches over ten years for the pain. It is a horrible drug but the only chance of any normalcy in life now. Good luck.
Thank you so much! Your demonstration is clear and I'm excited to begin. I've been looking for some exercises to help!!
You're welcome!
Very useful Dr
thank you ! great video
You're welcome, and thanks!
I might try these exercises
Very impressed. Very nice video Dr. Jo. The exercises are simplistic enough that it is not too overwhelming for people to try. This way they can get started with an easy manageable routine, stick with it, and add from there. I'm helping my girlfriend with her diabetic neuropathy, so i'm always trying to learn ways to help her. You have a nice way about you, and yet i see that you like to be fun and silly too. You're Awesome !!! Keep up the good work !
Thanks! I hope they help her. Also, if she has access to a pool, sometimes aquatic therapy, or even just water walking helps. Good luck!
Thanks for varieties exercises of of our body parts, it’s really useful for all ,specially me. I followed your exercises long time ago, probably 4-5 years . Thanks again, be safe.
You're welcome.
Thank you Dr Jo for this invaluable advice
