Pain in my right foot between toes?

Question

I have a pain in my right foot between the forth and pinky toes.

When I press on the top of my foot near these toes it hurts. I limp when i walk because it hurts and its a contant pain that doesnt go away

. For some reason it hurts more when I am sitting down for a long period and then I stand up.

The pain is relieved briefly when I soak my foot in hot water but it only lasts an hour maybe at the most and then the pain comes back

Anyone know what it could be?

Answer 1

could be a couple of things, morton's neuroma or capsulitis. why don't you check out this informative website i found regarding foot conditions and it includes a discussion forum with a doc, myfootshop.com. here are a few articles you can start with to see if they sound like your foot problem if not tool around the site i think you'll find it helpful. use the source as a direct link to the articles.

Answer 2

That sure sounds wierd, but I would make an appt with a podiatrist soon because I dealt with foot pain for 3 1/2 years and it was not pleasant. Your feet carrying your weight and you depend on them everyday and if you say you're limping, you need to see a podiatrist fast! Good luck.

Answer 3

No, but I can tell you how to find out. Get a copy, latest edition of RUNNER'S REPAIR MANUAL, it is probably out of print, but almost any book is available on e-bay or Amazon used books.

This book teaches you how to diagnose and cure almost all foot problems. Note that most of them result from bad shoes.

Some times a lot of foot problems can be eliminated by simply wearing a different type of shoe. For example, change from a dress shoe to a runing shoe. some people change several times during the day.

Answer 4

Call your foot doctor it could be a thing called morton's neuroma.
It's where you have a pinches nerve in your foot from the bones pushing together you can get surgery for that. You can go to the web and see what im talking about.

Answer 5

Maybe you have recently started wearing a pair of shoes that doesn't fit quite right. There may be something in the right shoe, like a odd thread that sticks up in just that area.

Try changing to a different pair of shoes for awhile.

Answer 6

Its hard to say. Do you have vascular (circulation) problems. Is there a rash or discoloration at all. Do you have any other symptoms (fever, other pains, anything else). Its really hard to say, you should probably see a doctor.

Answer 7

Yes, actually that is a classic Neuroma. Go see a podiatrist about it.
