I learned more in 18 minutes of this video than from 8 months of seeing numerous "experts" and "specialists".

[@shawnamoen5026]

I have had this pain for 20 years. Not a single dr has helped me.

[@seshadrisrinivasan5371]

Maybe they have no solution If given what will happen to Pharma industry and medical profession

[@russhenry8112]

The most thorough and common sense explanation ever👍

[@craigkeller]

I have watched a lot of videos in an effort to understand my injuries. This is the Best analysis period. Thank you 🙏!

[@Sam-uk4bb]

This taught me so much about leg numbness and double crush syndrome. Thank you!!

[@marcydobbs1653]

Extremely interesting and pertinent to my current situation. Neurophathy is an added diagnosis to sciatica. You've given me much to discuss with my doctors. Thank you.

[@wendybakker504]

Great video with a lot of good information. The current wait time for EMG testing in Niagara and the closest main city is 4-6 months.

[@angelasellers]

Thank you for excellent explanation - detailed and thorough. Love the past case examples.

[@terryduffus8504]

Well, answered every question I could think of and didn't now or think of,excellent, doc's on his game 😆 certainly made my brain turn ,brilliant

[@MrDubyadee1]

Thank you! I finally found the name for my most pressing problem. I've described the symptoms to multiple doctors and have told them what I thought it was (I seem to be right), but the GPs never diagnosed the problem. They scratched their heads, took measurements of nerve transmission in my legs and did an XRay of my spine, but nothing. Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome as you described it perfectly matches my experience. I have very flat feet and I've walked very long distances for years until this problem cropped up. Well it was sort of progressive starting with pain on the bottom of my feet. I'll be taking this to my GP next week and - from what I gathered from this video - will ask for a referral to a podiatrist.

[@marykarim6430]

Dr. Cooper is amazing. Thank you, doc.

[@budgreen100]

Great 👍🏽 information, and amazing presentation! Really enjoyed your practical breakdown and of how you think about your diagnosis. I’ve been a massage therapist for 29 years, and feel those were all great angles to explore.

[@emmtee227]

Best information I’ve found! Thank you!

Thank you for this detailed account and the information. Much appreciated. Downunder, South Australia

Brilliant take and analysis of PN…what clarity of thought and knowledge

[@jitendramalde739]

Dr, you have educated us with proper explanation. Thanks a lot.

[@binashanbhag7600]

Thanks a lot Dr for taking so much efforts in explaining the causes of foot numbness and tingling. Honestly appreciate it. I learnt a lot from your video. I am 68 yrs old and from India.

[@Christopher-dd3dg]

Thank you for a highly informative video presented in a way that is easy to understand. I especially found the information about double crush syndrome and the importance of the electromyography test helpful.

[@elsiesalcedo9478]

This presentation is awesome and very instructive as I'm going to a Neuro for the first time and I do feel like I have two separate things going on at the same time. Thanks Dr. as I feel so more informed.

[@gosia3032]

I'm very thankful for the excellent explanation !!!

[@janwoelffer7940]

Very well done with excellent information.

[@12Pearls12]

Thank you, Dr..such an important presentation!! ❤❤❤

[@salahahmad6515]

Legendary informative video. Thank you doctor. I have learned a lot about my peripheral neuropathy.

[@willroche6691]

This is probably the best video i have seen on what I believe i have. I just went to spinal specialist and now scheduled for epidural in L5-S1. Symptoms are heavy legs with occasional vibration feeling in upper right thigh. Both feet have tingling.

[@lynetteprice8519]

Do you know what that "heavy" leg feeling is attributed to? I have that but not numbness

[@RosaKroczka]

I'm having my foot 🦶 pain I'm old 88n ken do tu mach Take pill 💊 en try to wok not sitting to much

[@ashok1goodlife]

Doc, you're such a ⭐! Do continúe to shine with your amazing work

[@user-mi1xu8gc2g]

Thank you very much Dr Copper. I have learnt a lot from your video.

[@robincooper-fleming8072]

Great information and presentation.

[@dianafleetwood6154]

What ive learned in life is no one wants to be wrong. Especially a doctor😂. The chiropractic field is so underrated as most drs seem to think it is not significant to the patient. WHY?? Because there is no medication or surgical situations involved. Please.. Please do your body and life a favor and find a reputable doctor. The spine is the most important map system to your body right up there with vascular. Thank you doctor it is very true... "The more you know".. Knowledge is truly power.

[@grantog123]

Chiropractors don't solve the long-term problem of muscle imbalance that affects the bones. You have to keep going back. But they can provide significant temporary relief.

[@Horizon3165]

Thank you so ever much for this priceless video. I have watched many videos on neuropathy and found this one the most helpful of all. Thanks again.

[@user-gw7uf7qy6p]

Excellent insight analysis of the tingling and foot numbness and thought for a new approach to whole thought of treatments and modern access. Thank you Dr. Grant for your great presentation.

[@harisarvotham5662]

Superb analysis and explanation. Thank you Dr.

[@willmeredith3303]

Thank you. The video was very informative.

[@johnstrapason5936]

Excellent...excellent....excellent presentation. Please continue with your very educational videos.

[@manfredthewonderdog]

Thank you. You've given me more answers than anyone else. And much to think about. Being told we don't know why Is very discouraging So again,, thank you

[@mariomartellacci9462]

A well thought out, interesting and very informative presentation. I will keep this information in mind the next time I visit my provider with some type of pain issue(s)...

[@winstonbrowne8584]

I've learn a lot from your video and hope I can do that again tomorrow thanks again

[@barbaramurray5332]

This video has helped me to understand about my feet pain.Good information.

[@beybladeluks518]

Very informative video!

[@mampekhaebana-tlhapi5862]

Great information.. I have a problem with pinched nerve in my lower spine and have burning nerve pains in my my bums down my legs and feet! I've found this video extremely helpful.

[@hodahabachi9488]

Thanks a lot for these very clear and detailed explanations. I have excruciating pain and tingling in the groin and bottom of my feet , which get better when I sit down. Now it makes sense that it’s coming from my back as I have spondylolithesis LV3/LV4 through LV/S1.

[@Ropoca]

I learned a lot. Thank you

[@le832]

This is very thorough and helpful! Thank you. I do have tingling on the top of the foot and I periodically have had pain in my knees. Also I have flat feet.

[@garnetpierre4295]

wonderfully well explained

[@kpatel7995]

Outstanding Informative video,Amazing presentation. Thanks for bringing this wonderful video to us.

[@valrieclarke-morris1059]

Very informative, thank you.

[@spotlight1220]

Excellent! Stretching and Massage, Massage, Massage work like a miracle ❤️

[@megibatsa925]

How long did it take for tingling to go away? I have cervical and lower back issues, gone to physio for 2 weeks now, my neck feel better, the tingling leg is still here? i also do at home stretching exercises , some of the days i feel them less, and others more, I dont know what should I do anymore

[@keith708]

this was extremely informative. One of the best explanations' of the problem i am experiencing

[@katblank8555]

Absolutely fabulous explanation and education on this subject! Thank you. Your video has helped me on my journey to figure out what's causing my neuropathy symptoms. I just really wish you were my doctor!!!

[@LifeUser]

I went to an Acupuncturist who was highly recommended by a lot of people I know. She was amazing. After my first visit with her she told me a few problems she noticed during her examination. Three visits later, I had no more tingling in my legs and feet, not more back pain and even noticed I slept a lot better at night. I go for tune ups every three months and follow for the most part, eating patterns she suggested and what foods to eat less of. No big changes, but ones that actually made sense and helped. i wish I had known about her years earlier. Sadly, I can't get Medicare to help pay for it, but they do pay for BS medical care I got from Dr's who did me no good.

[@mariceldb2990]

Who is she? In what state are you or that acupuncturist? Care to share?

[@samkitty5894]

Were you able to walk before this?

[@godovermoney1124]

You're surprised? It's all a big racket. Big pharma & the "medical" community

[@beverlydinofer6603]

Absolutely the BEST and most informative presentation I have heard and seen since I started needing to find answers to the tingling and numbness in my feet. I have been treated for pain which I do not experience and no one listens to my complaints of numbness and tingling. Thank you.

[@elsiesalcedo9478]

I too do not have pain so everyone looks at me like I have three heads when describing my symptoms. I hope you are feeling better.

[@josephineeager5327]

Very informative. Thanks!

[@deeb2448]

You are amazing 👏 I know now what's wrong,I was so 😱 of what was happening!!! Thanks,I will go to my local Chiropractor.

[@beabrown5778]

I learned a lot of my issues with back and pain running down from my bottom to the back of my foot and under my foot. If I massage under my foot, ankle and from heel up to back of knee I will get relieve. Some times I experienced burning sensation of the foot. Thank you for this video. I planned to look at it and taken notes to discuss with my doctor. Thank you for this educational video.

[@alejandrodelcastillo8765]

Thank you so much it have been an excellent information source about the topic, the explanation was clear and complete. Great Doc!!

[@AlejandrinaMedina-ie8xl]

Thank you so much for this information ,very useful, God bless you and yours 🙏🏽🤗😃

[@bonitagoodman4526]

Everything that you have explained in this video speaks to all of the issues that I'm having and I haven't had a doctor to explain it in this way. So far, all they have wanted to give me is injections and medication to the point that I refuse to get them anymore because it has not stopped the pain. I honestly do not think they really know how to deal with the issues that I am having. I will continue to follow you to get some clarity with diagnosis and treatment. Thank you for having this platform.

[@brikeclark4546]

Brilliant explanation, thank you

[@balbirrehal2622]

Thanks very informative video. This is great advice for my sciatica pain treatment. God bless 🙏

[@user-xt5eh8qw6v]

Awesome presentation!

[@barbaradelacy6109]

I've had tingling in my legs for approximately 10 years. 9 months ago my legs and feet started to stop functioning normally. A neurologist has diagnosed me with Cerabella atrophy. It's worth including this as it wasn't mentioned. Otherwise excellent information.

[@samkitty5894]

How do you get around?

[@ratnayuana9815]

Thankyou Dr. Grant Cooper.. It's really help🙏

[@elsagoriva2503]

Thank so much, super great educational information. 😊

[@estheredouard4695]

Excellent information on Peripheral Neuropathy.

[@duttab1103]

Excellent video Doc, explained in a very simple way for a layman like me, incidentally I was diagnosed with Spondylolisthesis of L4-L5n and L5-S1 and at stage 1. Used to experience some of these challenges that and fortunately with a series of regular exercise, it is now managed.

[@madhoonaidu]

What are those exercises?

[@kamaljitsinghboparai3060]

Kindly tell me the exercise for the same

[@jcoops100]

Very interesting and informative

[@user-ex1jm7ml8s]

Very helpful as i have the double crush syndrome. Have been putting off the. Tarsal tunnel and am getting an epidural.. this gives me hope!!

[@AsimKhan-wx3ws]

To understand and cure the problem, is a lifetime problem. What the Doctor is not saying directly: LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT.

[@sl2608]

He treated the patient with an epidural and fixed the problem.

Doctor Cooper I've learned a lot from you today about my spine and about the numbness that I get in the top of my foot also about my growing I want to thank you for this video it really showed me a lot and it taught me a lot and I wanted to say thank you very much because I don't think your doctor's appear to know anything I've been suffering for months now with my lower back hurting it's taking away my ability to walk on my own it's taken away my ability to urinate on my own and nobody wants to do anything and I want to say thank you I suffer a lot

[@annparker8717]

[@arshadna]

Thank you so much for this video. I have been suffering from these symptoms for more than a year, and although I had an idea it was from the spine (as I have the disc herniations), things are so much clearer to me now, and I understand what my next steps need to be.

This is a very good video

[@jerrylrchandler942]

Excellent summary of anatomy in relation to functionality and clinical consequences relevant to therapy>. Thank you for carefully organizing the potential cause-effect relationships. This video helped clarify both the historical origins of my bizarre symptoms and the equally bizarre conseuqnecs of attempted therapies recommended for them. Your wisdom was and is deeply appreciated. I would add that soaking my feet in warm water was an effective adjunct to other perturbents of normal functions. ☺☺☺

[@TentsUp]

Very helpful and thank you 🙏. I have my big toes numbing. I will definitely do a Emg.

[@ltownandfriends4531]

[@grandmajane2593]

Thank you for the information. I have leg and foot tingling occasionally. I'm trying to figure out why. It looks like a complicated situation.

[@rebeccaflores2118]

Thank you. I have both hand and feet neuropathy. Just felt it. I had Laminectomy last n 2001. Now, i cannot walk properly. It just happen. I was dancing then I went down on the floor. I have been on self medication I learned from you tube. B12, b complex with vit e? Turmeric, magnesium, calcium and zinc. Gabapentin. I am 78 yrs old today and having massage therapy but no change yet. Thank you and Gob bless you more.
