Peripheral neuropathy.

Not a cure, but not an dangerous medication.

You can purchase an old glass 12oz coke bottle at any flea market for a buck or two. Not a cure for tingly feet , but an excellent treatment and it does help me.

Lay the bottle on the floor and roll it back and forth from your arch to your toes for a great massage of the foot. Just make sure it has those raised ribs.

I've tried professional massages and can't stand the touch. Makes me jump off the table.
A supplement that does work for me is Alpha Lipoid Acid. Also not a cure but does offer some relief. Make sure you get the natural brand. I've been using it for over a year and was not sure it worked or not. I started getting heart burn after takin it, 500mg/day so stopped. My discomfort level went way up. Someone on DU suggested eating half a banana before taking it and that worked great. I noticed the difference right away and now also take it again.
Good luck
