Burning Feet

 

INTRODUCTION TO BURNING FEET

Burning feet is a common foot complaint among many groups, most commonly in the older group over 50 years of age. There are many different causes of this condition. Diabetics are often affected with burning feet due to impaired neuropathy (nerves). There may be redness and swelling present, however, often there is no physical sign of this condition.

CAUSES OF BURNING FEET

  • Dampness, together with friction, leads to the sensation of burning, so its important to buy shoes that let perspiration evaporate.
  • Inappropriate socks. Natural fibres, like cotton and wool, absorb moisture from your feet but don’t let it evaporate.
  • Athletes foot can sometimes spread to cause burning sensation on the sole of the foot.
  • Allergic reaction to shoe material or socks.
  • Alcohol is also a contributing factor. Long term use can affect the nervous activity of the feet.
  • Diabetes
  • Smoking
  • Neuroma. A trapped nerve can lead to a hot burning sensation.
  • Gout can cause a burning sensation on the side of the foot.

 

TREATMENT OF BURNING FEET

  • Buy shoes and socks that have adequate ventilation.
  • If you are suffering from athletes foot then treat this condition.
  • Reduce alcohol and smoking consumption.
  • Herbal products that increase the circulation may help.
  • Do not leave ice packs on your feet. This can lead to other foot conditions.
  • Certain creams can help cure burning feet.

"I've gotten very quick results with this product. After 1 week, the burning has stopped. This is much faster than the results that I've gotten from any other product. If you aren't lucky enough to avoid this strange condition, this could be your Number One remedy. I've tried and it really works. Way to go! I didn't experience any side effects and the product was very easy to use. So I would recommend it to anyone."
