A 92 yr old woman had foot and leg pain which always more severe at night. I have to massage the middle part of the bottom of her feet and legs. I use many kinds of oil, coconut and turmeric, coconut and MSM and/or baking soda and coconut oil alone.  In the past, I have washed seniors feet with hydrogen peroxide and salt water. I use many essential oils from eucalyptus to tea tree oil. I made sure their diet is rich in garlic, onions and the sulfur family. For supplementation, I recommend turmeric and ginger capsule, melatonin and calcium with magnesium and zinc. I always use citrus fruits such as oranges and lemon in her diet of whole foods and fish.

The position of the hospital bed is important. Exercise, sunshine and adequate sleep are important.
