Due to nerve damage in my spinal cord I have peripheral neuropathy in both hands. Whenever I have burning pain it is usually on my palms. My palms will also turn bright red and I get a small blister in one spot as if I have been burned. Has anyone experienced anything like this with burning pain?

Does anyone else get the electrical shock feeling running down your legs (mainly my left leg, but the right one as well) all the way to the toes? Not a fan! At all! Suggestions for relief?

That's the one. Thanks for putting a name to it @A MyChronicPainTeam Member. That helps.
