foot pain and numbness

It started to hurt every time I would walk long distances and would feel like I had my socks bunched up under my toes. It graduated to constant ball of foot pain with numbness in the ball of foot and toes with tenderness between the metatarsal bones on both feet. Has anyone ever had this or currently has the same symptoms? I have been to my GP who thinks it is a foot issue. I have an appointment with an Orthopedic, but could not get an appointment until April.

i have numbness, tingling, and pain in my feet, toes and legs, also hands and fingers. i had a nerve test done and was told i had polyneuropathy!

Thank you for the interest. I still have foot soreness but my numbness has mostly gone away and the foot pain is not as pronounced. I think that might be a combination of personal care, and taking some supplements prescribed by my doctor. I take Vitamin D and Folic acid. I have borderline gout blood work which is what this was prescribed for.

Around Nov/Dec of 2015, I started having numbness in toes with the pain. Now I have pain and numbness most of the time. The pain/numbness is worse in the morning when first getting out of bed. After stretching, feet feel stiff until I start walking and is later in the morning. Icing and Ibuprophen have helped with the pain, but it always comes back. My PCP gave me a referral to Orthopedic physician. Symptoms: Ball of foot pain and feels like my sock is bunched up under my foot.

I haven't posted in a loooong time. I am still undx'd and when I get frustrated, will sort of grin and bear it fotr a while. I have a question about the numbness/pain/stiffness assoc. with MS. When my symptoms first began (they are predominantly one sided), I was having a lot of numbness and needle stabbing type pain.

When is the "point of no return"? I have numb feet and it is moving up my legs and I feel pain in my hands. I have uncontrolled diabetes type 2 for 5 years now. I am considering gastric banding so I may have the benefits of the change in my hormones in my stomach. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Yesterday my left arm started hurting and feeling like pins and needles. Now it's my left arm and my left leg. - mostly foot tho with the tingeling. I'm 32 weeks. Do u think baby's just on a nerve?

My back pain is almost totally gone, but I still have some noticeable numbness in my left calf and foot. I get tingling in my left knee and slight muscles twitches in my calf and foot (very very slight....feels like there are some ants crawling up my leg). I also get a warm sensation every now and then (feels like my foot is in a hot tub). My surgeon and physio don't think I have herniated again and don't feel the need for another MRI yet.

I have sciatic nerve damage due to a hip replacement in 2005. I have foort drop,pain,burning and numbness in rt foot and rt calf. Can't drive and had to go on disability. Anyone out there with similer problems. would like to here from them. Any relief besides meds for this?

ve had foot problems for years, and I assume that it is because they were damaged while in the military they used to swell the size of soft ball and a calcaneal fracture in the left foot. This eventually healed after they figured out it was a stress fx. I later continued to get sharp pains in the feet with swelling, but never wanted to complain for fear of having to many medical problems and possibly getting kicked out of the military for it.

It feels like you hit your funny bone sorta and the pain goes down to my big toe,which also has a numbness between my big toe and second toe.I do have what they call Mortons toe.My second toe is much longer than my big toe.I went to the doctor and he said he could cut the nerve but Im not sure about that.Any ideas whats going on? Any advice would help.

The neck calcifications are the cause of your hand numbness, but for now you should focus on a treatment for your sciatic pain..

I h ave recently undergone the same surgical proceedure as you wife and I am experiencing exactly the same leg numbness and buttock pain still, which inables me to sleep at night.

Good luck to your wife. If you find a miracle cure mail me plez.

I have been told that I have a congenital anomaly and spina bifida aculta. I have so much severe pain in my lower back I feel like I am going too just drop. My whole left side from my lower back to my foot is numb along with some fingers. Is this normal for these to cause that much pain and numbness. I don't want to let it go and be paralyzed or something. PLEASE HELP !!!!!

s all over from my toes to my heels, i have periodic numbness (even when i have them elevated), spasms in my arch and sides of the foot, puffiness around the ankle; and if i stretch the foot theres popping sensations that hurt as well. I have this problem in both feet, though its more severe in the right one. Elevating them doesn't help; nor does ice, heat, aleeve, or the methadone i take for fibromyalgia.

In addition, atherosclerosis can also cause pain, numbness, and tingling while walking and they can also reduce blood supply and lead to numbness. Please consult your doctor to get all these possibilities evaluation in your case for further assessment. Hope this helps.

At first, I thought the carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndromes were all I had. But now the foot numbness with the pain in the back of the leg makes me wonder.

I then developed severe pain down the left leg and numbness in the left foot knee thigh and left glute, and some vibrating down the right leg and numbness in the right does around March 4th.After about 4 weeks I had an MRI and it showed a very large herniated disc at L5 S1. The neurologist feels this is cause of numbness and pain in leg but doesn't think it has anything to fo with the feet/stress fracture problem.Hope that helps.

I had surgery on my leg in dec. cuz I had twisted my knee late last summer and by oct part of my foot was numb but the tingling was from the side of my knee down to my whole foot. went to an ortho doc that sed it was my back (i have DDD) so had injection, "this will help with the back pain", told him I don't have any back pain, my leg is tingling and my feet hurt all the time and the top of my left foot is numb.

How are your boules? If I can not go to the toilet properly my right side hurts and the pain goes into my right side! But I know it can also come from the spine as well as I have that? Good luck .

Within the last two months, I have been experiencing burning and pain in my right foot (including toes). I am taking oxcarbazepine, is this a side affect or does it mean I need to increase the dose.

They said it was sciatica that caused the leg pain and numbness and tingling. I just got my second steroid injection and the pain is much better though I still have a lot of numbness and tingling in my lower legs and foot. In fact, my other leg and one arm has been tingling and becoming numb since Monday. Best bet is to go see your doctor. Good luck.

Yes, intervertebral disc herniation in the cervical an lumbosacral region can cause these symptoms in hands and feet due to compression of exiting nerve roots at the cervical level and lumbar level, responsible for hand and foot pain respectively. Cervical disc compression if severe or associated with spinal canal stenosis can lead to symptoms in the feet also. You need a neurologist to examine you clinically, ask for an MRI spine to check the exact levels and evidence of spinal stenosis.

Hi and welcome, I am not really sure what you mean by "odd numb feeling but the numbness is not that strong", technically numbness is the 'loss of sensation', which will often additionally include pins and needles, tingling, burning etc altered sensations too......

I had severe pain in my hip and down my leg but after a few day all I had was numbness and foot drop to the point I was falling all of the time. I use a walker now and am thinking of surgery. All the comments I hear are after surgery the numbness set in, is there no hope for me?
