I had cancer about 4 or 5 years ago. I had 6 months of radiation and chemo. The last month it was in larger doses. I complained to the doctors I was having tingling in my finger tips and the ball of my feet and toes. Did this cause trouble with my nerve endings?

Most likely you have neuropathy from it. Meds like gabapentin and lyrica are used to decrease the pain. Also meds like cymbalta. You may need pain meds besides that, but let the drs treat you and see what you need. If those meds don't help enough, then see a pain management specialist.

I had this. My bursa sac was inflamed. See a chiropodist. You may need a cortisone injection.
