My feet start to heat up as soon as I put shoes on, I have this burning sensation and my feet get tired really quickly, especially the upper part of my feet. Without my shoes on, I can walk for miles without feeling a flinch. A doctor gave me Mecobalamin capsules coz I may be Vit B12 deficient but that hasn’t worked for me. I am not diabetic, I do have flat feet but I have been running, playing tennis and soccer for ages and that never left me with any issues surrounding my flat feet. It’s the burning sensation in feet that has started around a year ago and only kicks in when I have shoes on ( any shoes – sports or leather) that is really irking me out…… Any recommendation will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Burning feet may be a temporary problem, such as due to athlete's foot or sensitivities to fabrics or leather dyes. But when this symptom occurs over a longer period, it can indicate a more serious disorder and should be evaluated by a doctor.
One such cause of chronic burning feet is sensory peripheral neuropathy. This results from damage to the nerves that transmit sensation from the arms, hands, legs and feet to the brain. Causes of sensory peripheral neuropathy include:
Diabetes
Alcohol abuse
Nutritional deficiencies, such as vitamin B-12 deficiency anemia (pernicious anemia)
Treatment of burning feet is directed at the underlying condition, if known. To help relieve discomfort, try these tips:
Wear socks made of cotton — which allows your feet to "breathe" — rather than synthetic fabrics.
Avoid standing for long periods.
Take a pain reliever when needed.
Bathe your feet in cool water.

Hey Josh. Just wanted to say I totally get how you're feeling. A lot of us have been there. Myself included. When I was in high school I felt the same way but for a different reason, and that reason was acne all over my face. In some ways, I still haven't gotten over that. But listen dude. Maybe you're just over-thinking it. Sometimes there are more popular, more good-looking kids ALL around you. But looks only mean so much. What people love, what people adore and admire is someone who is unshakably self-confident. You are what you are, whether it be genetics, diet, etc. You just have to think, "This is who I am right now. Yeah, I can change who I am and how I want to look in the future, but for right now, this is what I have to work with. And I accept it." The key is accepting yourself. Learning to like yourself. Because, if you don't like yourself, it shows. And as far as vanity goes... Just don't be so vain. Stop obsessing over your looks. You're personality is where it's at, my man. When you're smiling, laughing, being sociable and stuff like that, people won't give a shite what you look like. They'll just want to be around you because you're a social animal! and your company makes them feel a little less self-conscious about their own selves. Anyway, I feel like i'm being a little long-winded so i'll leave it at that. But I hope this helps! -Chris

I have this happen every fall, when I start wearing shoes again after a summer of flipflops and sandals. My feet feel tingly and kind of go numb. And there is a weird burning.
For me, I simply loosen the laces on my shoes ALOT. This sounds like a "duh, you are tying your shoes too tight" kind of answer but it really isn't. I have to leave my shoes tied very very very loosely for a few weeks and then gradually start tightening them. Somewhere around, just barely tight enough to keep from walking out of them. If I don't do this, even tying them normally makes my feet feel weird. And it keeps happening until I make my shoes really loose. It didn't happen until 4 or 5 years ago, but now it happens every fall when I start wearing regular shoes again.
It may sound odd, but it can't hurt to try it for a few days.

do not wear dark socks shoes leather. Are your shoe's the correct size. Well ventilated shoe's. Try wiping your feet with alcohol prior to putting on your shoe's, use drying powder. If all this fails see a doctor you maybe deficient in some thing minerals etc.

My mother has the same sensations due to her peripheral neuropathy. She experiences burning, tingling, etc. If you've had an old back or spinal injury then you could have nerve damage and unfortunately pain management is the only way that is dealt with- not cured, but keep seeking medical advice regardless.
