foot pain going up leg

I am having all sorts of pain in my foot and leg and can't seem to get a diagnosis. So far, I've seen two podiatrists, neurologst, PCP, and will see an orthopedic surgeon in about a month. Last year I rolled over my big toe with a pallet jack that had a pallet on it at an old job. Well at the time it didn't break my foot or cause any bruising or any type of problem that required medical attention so I let it go.

t think this has to do with my previous back problems because he did a physical exam on me and my leg moved without pain. But he did not move my knee. Just the leg up and down, side-ways. So he ordered an MRI on ONLY my knee. I know what sciatic pain it like. It goes from the buttocks down to the foot. But mine does not start in the buttocks, but in the knee. At the same time I get the impression that it could be my back.

If so have a word with a chiropodist (sp), you might need some shoe inserts to correct it. Feet being messed up could explain the leg pains after walking as if you feet are out of alignment it messes up everything else above them. Other thing is you could be having a wave of physical WD symptoms, if the pain is new and goes away within 24 that could be it.

) I woke up in the middle of the night and my right leg from my knee to my foot is numb and really tingly. It also has burning/searing pain. My right arm and hand are also very tingly. Both my foot and my hand feel ice cold as well, but when I touch them, they feel fine. WTH is going on? It seems just when one thing gets better, something else pops up. If I truly do have MS, why does it seem my "relapses" come so close together?

But the last couple of months, I have had extreme left heel pain which seems to be spreading up my left leg. I also have pain in my right elbow. I have been to my podiatrist who has recommended orthotics etc,. Could this be MS related?

Hello, I am experiencing terrible Foot pain. starts from my left hip and runs down to my foot. It is a shart pain. The pain doesn't remain in my hip, but my foot has constant pain. I have seen a Podiatrist and was given cortisone shots, that did not help at all. Let me back up a bit. I was diagnosed with a pinched nerve in my back. I went through treatment ( 3 injections in my back) over 3 weeks. My back pain is gone, but weeks later, I developed this leg and foot pain.

she waited close to 2 weeeks and FInally went to the doctors. you guess it she broke her leg. the bone luckily heeled okay, however she still has pain when walking. the doctor told her that if she came in sooner she might not have the pains all of the time when she is on her feet.

That sounds a lot like how my foot drop with my left leg started. First it was the pain in late afternoon because my leg was getting very tired. The next thing I noticed was my foot was turning out, probably in an attempt to keep my balance on that shaky leg. Finally I started to trip over things with that foot because it just would not lift correctly any more.

The leg and side pain might just be a muscle cramp that I injured somehow, and just coincidental to my foot....but I am really getting to worry about this foot pain. Is there anything someone can suggest?

t act like she really cared, I mean this stuff with my foot has been going on for over 4 years and the pain in my hip, down my leg has been since March 1......I am trying to not get discouraged she said maybe it is the SI joint and is going to see if Physical Therapy will help.

Other health issues like thyroid disease can also bring on foot, leg, and hand pain - I also have this. Custom foot Orthodics also help but not alone- the good ones start at $200 a pair. The flimsy $10 ones offer no support.

I am 41 weeks pregnant tomorrow Sunday. And I only dilated 2cm. But having alot of contractions I been going to the er already twice in a week n everything looks ok the doctor just told me I have to walk,walk,walk!! So yesterday I walked for an hr in the morning n than in the afternoon I walked 40 min only.. but when I returned from walking in the morning I started getting a pain in my right leg I can't put pressure it hurts so bad like a leg cramp but it's not specific a leg cramp.

Ok so this is gonna sound weird but today i sat down in the shower for a few minutes to relax and when i stood up my foot, leg, thigh and vagina went to sleep.... ?! I told my husband i was like i have NEVER had my vagina go to sleep let alone my enitre leg lol.

my one leg is much worse than the other and on this side I too have pain down into my foot...the foot will burn but not the leg/legs....with the legs its more of a tightness/muscle spasm feeling and the non stop ache... (hey I too need SPELL CHECK, you are NOT alone here either!) I have discribed my leg pain as they feel like they are encased in cement...maybe more accurate is they feel like they are CEMENT...heavy,hard to bend, and SOLID...

Get magnesium pills from the supermarket. Helps heaps with cramps.

I also have spondylosis L2-S2. I have radiculopathy rt buttocks into lower rt leg/foot with no muscle weakness. My neuro said that he felt something else was going on beside just the disc and sent me for a EMG which is normal. Anyone have any thoughts about what could be going on?

My left leg is the pain on that cramps too. Drink tons of water, that's what helps me. If i drink anything sweet during the day I'm more likely to get them too.

Hi im 38 weeks pregnant and some nights i wake up with really bad shooting pain all up in my calf muscle that lasts for atleast 5 to 10 minutes and i scream like bloody murder it hurts so bad, 2 nights ago was really weird because my foot turned inwards and i was not able to move it atall, like it was paralized.... and now i feel like somethig is wrong with my foot because everytime i walk its curving inwards and my whole leg hurts to where it feels like i pulled a really large muscle...

i dont smoke nor drink so when i sleep at night it seems gone but when i wake up the pain is there and more painful under my toes which leaves but then the chronic pain starts. my leg is not pale,cool or clammy,no fever,no discloration and i can walk fine,i could run up 5 flights of stairs if i needed but the cramping is there.its only going on day 3,but im usually in a big box truck with alot of leg room,now im in a van times 2 weeks with no room.

If I stretch my foot forward it is quite painful. I believe the swelling is starting to go up the leg. My ankle is also swollen. What would cause this?

Hi Steph, I hope you don't mind a post from a mother that is long past her reproductive years. When I had my children, u/s was not available. I had the same kind of "rib pain" that you do and no one could find the cause. I was 26 weeks pregnant at the time with my first child. At first they thought it was gall bladder problems. I had a great OB and he measured my belly several times and found that I seemed to be carrying a "long baby.

re like and I have been getting this pain lately from say, walking to the fridge or going up a flight of stairs. The shooting/stabbing pain is crippling when I put any sort of weight on my foot, and puts me on the floor for 3-5 minutes until I can get up again - the pain is completely gone. The pain runs up along from the bottom of my shin to underneath the kneecap where the shin meets the knee. Any ideas on what this might be caused by?

Forgot to mention that the right foot is hard to pull up when walking and tends to turn inwards so I tend to either trip myself or have to lift foot higher to step. It often feels stiff. I cant work out if this might be spasticity. If it is it would be mild as it is not painful , it just aches. It does affect my walking and tires my lower legs and right foot out. the more tired the muscles get , the harder it is to pull my toes up. Please help. What can be done about this??

also along the botton of the arche, I had a scan done in march which lited up all over my foot. Pain does also raideate up my leg, as far as past the knee. Im so tired of pain... specially when Im on it its worse. Went shopping for 2 hrs and pain is debilitating. haven't worked but maybe 2 weeks since sugery....no one is helping, what can this be?
