Burning Feet

Burning feet is a common complaint, especially among people over 50 and those who are diabetic.

Thyroid dysfunction, gastric restriction in morbidly obese people, and heavy use of alcohol also have been linked with burning feet.

Neuroma and tarsal tunnel syndrome, which causes a pinched nerve, also can result in burning feet.


Excessive training, such as running long distances without rest, places repeated stress on the foot and ankle. The result can be stress fractures and muscle/tendon strains.
