nerve pain in feet

My mother, age 80, a year ago had double knee surgery, she complains of pain and burning in her feet around the ankle area, some heaviness, pain pills don't seem to be helping. She went to the doctor and he said it was nerves in her feet. Is there something that she can do to relieve this besides staying on pain medicine?

Can be used for acute ankle sprains, chronic ankle instabilities as well as prophylactic use. This low profile ankle brace, made of a rigid unified plastic outer shell, fits easily into all shoe types.
