What Causes Aches In Both Feet Around Arch And Heal?
For the past two months I've been having some aches in both feet around the arch and heal. This primarily happens when I'm laying down at night and trying to get to sleep. I don't seem to have this problem when I'm standing or walking. I've also been having increasing symptoms of 'pins & needles', stabbing pains in the feet and often times lower legs - again, this problems doesn't happen when I'm standing or walking. Last night I was awakened out of a sound sleep from one of these sharp pains in my feet. Any idea what may be causing this?

In my opinion you have intermittent claudication , i recommend you see a vascularity doctor
also a less common possibility is spondylitis in L5/S1
