I have this issue with my feet. My neuro believes it's neuropathy. This means that there is nothing wrong with my feet, like a broken toe or athletes foot, but rather the nerves in my feet sending incorrect pain signals.

I am on day 4 of 3600mg/day of Gabapentin (Neurontin) to try and relieve the discomfort. It's a little better but it may be time to try a different approach, like Lyrica. There are a variety of drugs to address neuropathic pain. Individuals respond differently to them. Gabapentin might work for you but do nothing for me. Lyrica may work for me but do nothing for you, etc.
