Burning Feet

Burning feet can be caused by a number of conditions. It can even wake people up at night. You usually see it in people over the age of 50, but people under 50 can also have burning feet. This is pretty common with diabetes. It can be mild, local and easily treatable or it can indicate serious general medical care.
You may notice an ache and burning at the end of the day especially if you are on your feet all day. Hot sweaty feet can cause burning sensations. Neuropathy is common in diabetes but neuropathy is common in chronic alcoholism, vitamin deficiencies, usually vit B and heavy metal poisoning. You could have burning feet if you have tarsal tunnel syndrome also. If you notice burning sensation in the forefoot area it could be metatarsalgia, Morton's neuroma or maybe athletes foot or fungal infection.
Since this could be from so many different problems it is very important to check with your doctor to see if it is something serious or not.
If it is a mechanical problem a good fitting shoe with support is a good place to start.
The doctor will order lab work and possibly other testing to find out what the cause of your burning feet is coming from.
