What treatments help with chemo neuropathy in hands and feet?

Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy can be challenging to manage, and it's understandable to feel concerned about whether these symptoms will improve over time. Many community members have found relief through various approaches including physical therapy, certain medications prescribed by their oncology team, gentle exercise, and sometimes vitamin B supplements - though it's important to discuss any new treatments with your healthcare provider first. Consider reaching out to your oncologist about specialized neuropathy treatments or referrals to specialists who focus on managing these side effects.

Are you getting ice packs on your hands and feet during chemo? I always have it done (wear gloves and socks). It’s supposed to reduce neuropathy

I start my chemo this week. Receiving caps la in my hands and feet. Is this something they provide. Or should I bring my own?

Yes, I did I ice packs on my hands and feet throughout chemo, so I was surprised neuropathy was a huge side effect; perhaps it could have been worse.

I had Reynaud’s before the cancer diagnosis and treatment. I’m done with chemo and radiation; i have more tingling and numbness in my fingers and feet now. I used icing gloves and footies during chemo but I don’t know whether they helped. I’m interested in any solutions that anyone has found!

Talk to a radiologist. They have treatment for that! Out of the box and it works!!!
