PAINFUL FEET WHILE SITTING ...

I was just wondering if anyone else suffers from painful feet after sitting for a while.. I know its my weight, but my feet feel so tender, and if i step on even a small grain of rice or the smallest thing on the floor it feels like a knife went through my foot. Also I noticed when I eat alot of salty and sugary foods they hurt non stop. So Im avoiding that food like the plaque. Its hard but I have to, or I will be in so much pain. This just started about a few months ago.. Im thinking maybe its diabetes or something, I dont know.......

Emily; You might want to have your sugar checked mine ended up being diabetes. It is not anything to play around with either. I see my doc every three months for diabetes. I had the same symptoms, you are describing. It may not be it, but better safe than sorry.

Definately have your blood sugars checked. If that's OK, go to a podiatrist. I had similiar problems and it turned out I had internal warts (can't remember the medical name) and also some bone spurs. All of this was aggrivated by my obesity, so be sure you get it all medically documented. Good luck, the only thing more painful than our feet is our teeth! I'd rather have anything wrong with me other than aching feet or aching teeth. ~ Trish

Trish - Is a neuroma the condition to which you were referring?
