Suggest Remedy For Sudden Foot Pain
My my feet ache when I begin to walk on them first thing in he morning. Sometimes after I have been sitting in a reclined state on the couch. They do not hurt during the day just when I first start walking. I was told it was planters fascinates. But am wondering if it is something else. I notice there is worse pain when my allergies are bothering me. Thanks,

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sudden foot pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like peripheral neuropathy , injury , gout , corns and callus , soft tissue injury or venous insufficiency . I would suggest you to consult podiatrist for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan or x-ray along with blood test and urine test and physical examination to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may also refer you to orthopedic surgeon for foot problem , who may prescribe diuretic along with muscle relaxant , anti inflammatory .For now keep your legs in hot water tub with Epsom salt for 15 minutes daily and take proper rest . Doctor may recommend orthotic devices like special shoe . You should reduce your weight by doing light exercises like yoga and altering your diet . Also do gentle massage with almond oil and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
