foot pain

Tags: foot pain

I am woken up during the night with hot burning pain in my left foot only, mostly in the middle toes. It is really painful, and I get up and rub Aspercremem on them. 2 questions...Why only this foot....and could it be gout. I have polymylgia rheumatica and spine problems.

Gout usually only hits one joint at a time and is most common in the large toe. I have not seen this as a symptom of polymyalgia rheumatica. You may want to try the MedHelp symptom checker and have it looked at by your doctor.
