Has Anyone Had Foot Problems Like This

[enginerd]

Three weeks ago I wore some high heeled boots all day while shopping, running errands, etc. My feet hurt really bad by the end of the day. But now it is three weeks later and my feet haven't quit hurting. I've quit wearing heels and have been rolling my feet over a frozen water bottle at night but they still continue to hurt. I was thinking maybe I have plantar faciitis but it isn't really my heel that hurts - it is mainly the ball of my foot and up inside (the bones?). I can't figure out what is going on so I guess I better schedule an appointment with my doctor.

My daughter had plantar fascitis earlier this year. Her first symptoms were pain in the ball of the foot. One foot only. Soon had it on the other foot and eventually heel pain. I got her special ice packs that were like socks that held the packs. Got her splints to sleep in. Orthotics for her shoes and some really expensive running shoes. I was told the two worst things to wear were heels and really flat shoes. Something in between is better. And stay off your feet as much as you can. Oh! I also got her some exercise and massage things. Got them all online.

I have a friend who had that also. She went to see the Doc.
He told her to buy inserts for her shoes. She did and it worked. Hope your pain goes away~~
Take care~~

I've suffered for years not so bad this year since I quit my second job. I used to get balls in my ankles the doctor said it was tension. If it is really bad I would see a doctor.

It sounds like plantar fasciatias.

different shoes and get the night time splint. They sell them at places like walgreens and walmart but that was the best thing that helped mine.

IMO I would skip the regular doctor and see a podiatrist. I've long had foot pain, but didn't know what was "normal." I now have custom-made orthotics and my feet feel MUCH better.

Possibly Plantar fascitis or heel bone spurs ??

I get bone spurs in my heels. That's what it sounds like. Get some heel inserts. They help. If that's what it is, your doctor will give you cortizone shots in your heels. Yes it is painful but it does help.

Were the shoes too tight and you pinched a nerve? I've had that happen, but it didn't last more than a day or two. I have plantar facsitis and it's a different kind of pain. The pain in the ball of the foot is more like a burning pinching pain, where the heal pain is a sharp stabbing pain. I agree the podiatrist is your best bet.

Don't know if it's plantars, but you may want to continue rubbing your feet every night and rub Olive Oil on them every night....you may also, want to soak them in Epsom Salt at least 2-3 times for a week
