My feet are bright red and painful at times. It's nerve damage .

Yes, I have one ankle that swells & part of foot turns blue. I have had a doc. check my ankle for a pulse. It's there. Just life with MS & i don't walk anymore. You are right keep moving those limbs!

Yes, unbearable pain. The pain is manly nerve pain which is hard to get under control. Unfortunately it's time to see a Foot Doctor again. I'm sorry your suffering. (Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators)

I'm not supposed to walk they want me in the wheelchair but I am still willing to look drunk and fall. I will give in when necessary. Such a sight... Drop foot braces, knee braces with cane or rollator, currently with arm in a sling trying to relax the nearly immobile arm (flare/relapse) with service dog in tow with fanny pack and glasses. Self training my 8mo old husky is going well but I need to find a local trainer asap.

Mine does it, summer heat doesn't help, take anti inflammatory meds for me are necessary, ice/elevate. Some times Lasix. Make your neuro aware if it's interfering with walking. My compression wraps by ikeepi (order from uk) on Amazon help massage and increase blood flow. In middle of a relapse they want to call a flare :( 3000mg salumedrol w taper. No optic neuritis but I was given 750mg salumedrol prior to the MRI. I have not been able to move my left arm for 3 days. Er gave me toradol, Flexeril and I am still on baclofen too. Got about 15-20% movement in the arm today but it's just a massive dead weight totally on fire! My calves and foot have done it before too. I am lucky I don't have the swelling as often as some but the spasticity to the point of immobility is happening more often. i have had that arm locked up for as long as 3 weeks. Btw try to move even if you have a limb freeze up like this. Muscle is atrophying while I can't move it.
