It started one day when I was in the store and was walking a long time (I had been to previous stores as well, it was basically a night of being non stop on my feet). I was walking with my mom, we took a corner to go into another aisle and my right foot cramped up severely. I literally just dropped everything I had and grabbed my foot. I sat there massaging it but nothing helped. For about a half hour I sat there crying holding my foot that still was cramped up and had to have my mom help me out to the car to go home. I was not wearing good shoes, flats in fact. It’s 4 months later and I can barely stand for long before my foot starts to hurt, then eventually after awhile will lead to cramping up again if I ignore it. I’ve been to a doctor and a orthopedic dr and they both don’t know what it is, even after x rays. I do not do any running or anything that could have contributed.
