Foot Problem

As I have mentioned in previous posts.  I have RA and OA  For several months I have been having a reoccurring problem with my foot.  I  had it on both feet but not at the same time.  My left foot seems to be the one that gets it more and worst.  It will start with a burning sensation, then later a horrible itch, on the sole of my foot.  Then when the itching stops it leaves a perfectly round circle that hurts to walk on or touch.  The more I keep my foot raised seems to help.  I went to MD Wednesday and she had no idea what it could be.  My father had RA and would have ulcers on the front of his leg, I was wondering if this could be a sign of that?  Does anyone know?  Has anyone had the same problem?

Thank you for your help in this matter?

Because the itch seems to be way inside it's not on the surface .... very annoying and uncomfortable

Hi Daisy

How do you not scratch?  I can not help but scratch, it is very uncomfortable.

I don't know to be honest,all I can say it that I have the same painful burning stinging sensation on the soles of my feet with sometimes a deep seated itch I can't scratch
(very uncomfortable)...I have never had anything resembling a red circle or ulcer though !!! I do have a lot of redness but I generally just put that down to a "flare up"
Sorry I can't be of more assistance to you on this.
