Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to peripheral neuropathy.
The treatment consists in medication to relieve the symptoms.
I suggest Gabapentin as a specific treatment to relieve the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
I also suggest physical therapy.
Other treatment consists in surgery or injections for increased nerve pressure.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
