Merry Meet!

I am new so I apologize if I am posting my question in the wrong area.

My husband had a pretty severe stroke earlier this year and is reeling from its affects. He is on the mend, however slow, but has significant neuropathy throughout the left side of his body. As his arm and leg begins to heal and life starts slowly moving through the limbs, it causes an extreme amount of pain. He has described it as being burned alive while someone scratched the burning flesh with razor blades. I want to make him a salve or lotion I can massage into the linbs that will help ease the nerve pain a bit.

I am working on a few ideas, but since I am no expert, I was hoping someone may have some insight or expertise on what herbs have shown to work well in this area. He really doesnt want to take the prescribed medications (narcotics) the doctors have given him, he's never been a pill guy. And I really cant blame him, the effects these toxins have on your body can be quite severe. Unfortunately the pain at this point is so severe he doesn't have many choices until we can find an alternative or the pain subsides on its own, which can take years.

Thank you in advance for you help.

Blessed Be,
Rose
