Hello Fredgroese,

Welcome to the Pain Management Forum. I am glad that you found us at MedHelp and took the time to post. Your symptoms sound painful and I am sorry to hear about them.

I hope you can provide us with a little more information. Do you have redness or swelling with the pain? Are you a diabetic?  How long have you noticed these symptoms? What makes it better and what makes it worse?

One of the possibilities is Peripheral artery disease (PAD) or could also be some neuropathy, over use, gout or any other number of other conditions. More information may be helpful.

Understand that there are no physicians on this forum. We are all chronic pain patients with varying backgrounds and experience. Be are happy to offer our opinions and support.  

I'll look forward to hearing from you again with more information. If is always best to consult with your PMP. He/she will have more correct answers...but we're always happy to help the best we can.

Take Care,
~Tuck
