Diabetic Foot Pain – Symptoms, Causes & Treatments

Capsaicin Cream

Capsaicin cream could be helpful in blocking pain signals. These effects come from an included ingredient that can be found in hot peppers. Those products could be purchased in most health stores in the form of patch, jelly, or lotion. You can directly apply them to your skin where the diabetic nerve pain occurs. However, keep in mind that capsaicin would cause irritation in a few people, so make sure to consult your doctor before using. Also, avoid applying it on open wounds and sores as it would trigger some allergic reactions. [12]
