Is It Recommended To Consult A Walk-in-clinic For A Peripheral Neuropathy On Soles Of Feet?

I have developed peripheral neuropathy, non-diabetic, on the soles of my feet and my heels. It is growing more painful and uncomfortable. I am concerned, worried. I am 63, on lithium x 10 months, newly relocated, this won t have medical coverage for up to 3 months. I would not ordinarily go to a walk-in clinic for such a neurological concern. Yet my question is, might I in fact get some help for this in a walk-in clinic? Thank you.

I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that if you are on antipsychotic drug particularly lithium then this may cause neuropathy, I would like to advise you to keep the stress level very low, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
