I have had hammer toes, etc in both my feet for many years. I had unsuccessful surgery on the right f00t many years ago, Have had redness, stiffness, tenderness in those five toes since that surgery. Now I have the same problems on the left foot and am very uncomfortable, with same symptoms. I am already on Neurotin to ease the pain and discomfort with no relief. IS there any cream, oil or treatment that I can use to ease the discomfort. I am scheduled for surgery soon on the right foot as I can hardly wear shoes. I would like to go into the surgery with some relief from the current symptons.
