Hi. My feet feel like they're sunburned underneath. Looking for a cream in the UK for relief which is safe to use with levothyroxine, ramipril, steroids etc. Im using a footbath, foot massaging machine and bought some Epsom salts to try. Slight improvement. Need overnight relief cream Thanks.
I haven't had the treatment so I can't comment on creams bur I can give a couple of tips
1) I had itchy and sore soles of feet through dermatology issues. Creams applies would wipe off on my sheets etc at night. I discovered socks which were coated in silicon on the inside. Hence the cream stayed and soaked in my feet. I hate socks in bed so I cut holes for my toes...trust me, a game changer.
2) when my children had chicken pox I was advised to try bicarb of soda in a bath. Wow, it soothed the itching and inflammation. You could try that in your footpath. Epsom salts have magnesium in and more for muscler pain.
Obviously I am not a medical person so if in doubt contact ur medical team.
Hope this is helpful
