No, there are at least a couple of drugs that might help depending on your particular situation...lyrica and neurontin...
I read somewhere that sometimes people can get a tightening of the fibrous sheath around the tendons and nerves of the feet in the same way people get it in the hands as carpal tunnel syndrome and sometimes they can do a similar surgery if that is the case. check with your doctor on any of this information.

A balanced diet is the best answer to almost any health issue. Adding vitamin and mineral supplements will ensure that your body has a supply of the raw materials that it needs to repair anything that it is capable of. This will help you to heal faster if it is something that can be repaired.
Nerve damage does repair. I had Bell's palsy a while back, and it took nearly two years for the nerve to repair.

Tough question - ask a neurologist for specifics, but as proteins are the building blocks of all cells, lots and lots of protein - chicken breast, fish, etc. Also, probably therapeutic doses of vitamins. To be certain, consult a neurologist, and good luck!
To "Wills" above - we are living in the age of medical miracles - nerve restoration is not only possible, it has already happened - remember when Christopher Reeves wiggled his toes? That was NOT supposed to happen, but it did!

There have been some research on calorie restriction which concluded that it might help recover nerve cells. But, not any type of calorie restriction will help (calorie restriction with proper minerals / vitamins / amino acids intake).
Here's a article about a research done on mice stating recovery improvements by calorie restriction :
http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn10386-fasting-may-boost-recovery-from-spinal-injury.html
"Calorie restriction appears to make the cells in the spinal cord more sensitive to growth-promoting proteins"
Also, here's the link to the Calorie Restriction Society where the theory is better explained and where you can find reference to books on the subject :

I know homeopathic remedies helped my nerves after major trauma, even the doc was impressed at the healing rate.
Check out dr. balch's book (may have a website too) Prescription for Nutrition. It's the bible for that kinda stuff.

to be honest with youi, stay away from doctors and prescription drugs. go see a naturopathic doctor. do research. better yet , pick up Kevin Truddeau's Natural Cures book. do everything in chapter 6, and believe me, you'll feel better without using prescription medications.(POISON!!!) Remember, NATURAL HERBS is the way to go.

I'd try incorporating vitamin B6 in your diet as it help with your
nerves. Take a look at different vitamin qualities and see if there
are others as well that will help with your specific problem.
