Sudden, acute foot pain..both feet, non swollen

[Karina0775]

I'm a 42 year old woman who is relatively active but noticed last week after my walk my feet hurt. Didn't think anything of it until it progressively became so bad, I can't walk. No trauma,  no swelling, no discoloration just a constant burning, sharp pain in both feet active and in rest. Nothing helps so please don't jump to nsaids,  I can't take them and ice hasn't helped. Tylenol either. The pain is worse when I flex my feet and the all over pain is my outer feet, balls, and arches. Help.

Hello~I am sorry you are having these issues, it is no fun to have foot pain.

I am thinking that maybe the pain is due to the way you either slept or sat, maybe your foot was in an odd position, however, the pain should not be lasting if that is the case.

You may also have dislocated some bones in your foot, there are many little ones in the feet and you may have dislocated some. I suggest seeing a podiatrist or even a chiropractor as he/she can actually adjust the foot and areas around it. You may need an x-ray as well to see what is going on. I hope you get relief soon.

Could be nuropathy.. I have major feet burning achy pain with nothing making it better. I can't handle shoes or socks on my feet at times.

Fallen arches, maybe? I have foot pain a lot, too. It's horrible. I have to keep my shoes on for some support. I would never recommend any sort of pain killers. I would recommend a podiatrist if your gp doesn't have a sufficient answer. You need the cause, not a band aid to mask the pain.
