nerve pain in the top of foot
by Suzanne
I developed a severe burning pain in the top of my left foot. At the onset(about a month ago), it only hurt to push in the clutch of my car or point my foot. Now, it constantly tingles, and is painful to touch as well. As I read about some of the conditions and symptoms on this site, it appears to be mid tarsal fault. I am 40 years old, and fairly flat footed. I bicycle and exercise on an eliptical. Should I stop those activites? It doesn't hurt while I am doing them. Any advise on what direction to go with treatment? Hi Suzanne, With proper treatment by a podiatrist there should be no reason to stop your activities. This is a fairly common problem and one that is easily treated by a foot specialist. Marc Mitnick DPM
