I have had problems with my feet, burning, throbbed to the point of me putting ice bags on them at night.

My pain settled down after my C5,6 decompression was done. I have had 2 fusions and suspect the 3rd to be coming soon as I am having foot pain again. I will certainly check back with you once we go over my MRI results.

Thank you Sheila for your reply. Like you I think I should’ve had a recent mri for my neurologist to look over.please let me know how you get on it would be appreciated and helpful as I’m left confused! Best wishes

Hi there, I have Cervical Myelopathy and had two operations c3c4c5 fused but still struggle with things . The operations are to stop further progression but if you have had it a while you just have to manage the best you can , but if you suspect things are getting worse talk to your Dr or neurologist .

Thank you for responding Byron after re reading my post I must be confused! The MRI was 2009 (I had my fusion in 2010) not 2019 . So yes that’s why I spoke to my doctor unfortunately an MRI wasn’t arranged and my feet are unbearable at times especially in the evenings. I know it’s a struggle with cervical myelopathy and wish you all the best.Lynn

Hi I have had burning in my feet just so painful so bought some ice gel bandages, they did bring some relief and put them on at night.

Hello Dizby thank you for your suggestion of gel bandages I could give it a try but my feet in the day are usually freezing they actually feel like I have socks on and have been experiencing a numb/pain in left thigh and hip especially if I lay on that side even the sheets/duvet are uncomfortable when they touch .. Is it just night time when your feet burn? Lynn

H Tattham, no during the day too. One day after shuffling around the shops for a short period of time I thought I'd never make it to my car they were so sore. I was in tears when I got home and put frozen towels on them. That's when I went looking for something else and came across the gel bandages. I've put them on at night too. Thankfully I haven't had the burning for a little while. I'm thinking it's the amtryppiline helping. Although my hands still burn a little and sting when typing.
