What Is The Treatment For Neuropathy In Feet And Hands?
I have neuropathy in both of my feet and the now I feel it in one of my hands. I need to start on medication to help ease the pain. I am also thinking about requesting a Handicapp Placard for those days when my feet hurt so much that walking through a store is very painful. I have cut many trips short and and avoided some due to the pain. There are days when I do not have a problem, but the days when I have pain it makes me want to stay home. Should I even try to obtain a placard?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to peripheral neuropathy.
It is disease affecting the peripheral nerves.
There are many meeical conditions related to this diagnosis such as diabetes.
So, I suggest to do some examinations such as glycemic level and a nerve function tests.
Meanwhile, I suggest using Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day to relieve the symptoms.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
