Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I m a 14 year old girl and i have been experiencing deep aches at night in my feet. It s mostly one foot which hurts but the ache switches through the two feet every night and without doing anything in the day. I have been experiencing this pain since i was very young (around when i was 9 years old) and i have seen many doctors but they all say i had no problem. The pain hasn t worsened through the years and there are no swelling or fractures. I can t tell where the ache is coming from but it is a deep dull ache. The pain only comes in the evening and rarely in the mornings or the afternoon. I m also wondering, is this pain related to restless leg syndrome? Recently, I have been taking magnesium 150mg tablets for my restless leg syndrome and my pain has reduced and also decreased. I am just worried that this could be bone cancer, can it be? Also when i was 7 I had a bone infection just incase this is related.
hello You must get checked by a neurologist,often thisis related to restless leg syndrome.You should take physical therapy, tip toe exercises and hot fomentation of feet at bed time.Consult orhopedic doctor or podiatrist aslo just in case you have drooped arches of feet or flat feet. An x ray shoud also be seen by a orthopedic doctor for any small bones abnormal anatomy.A complete work up is a must for more definitive treatment. thanks
