Painful feet esp heels, anyone else?

[VikkiR]

Went to the supermarket this evening and after 20 mins or so my feet feel like I've broken all the bones in them and really hurt. It hurts more to stand than to shuffle and also getting sharp electric type pains in the arches and heel. Does anyone know what it is? I am finding I can walk less and less, 20 minutes on my feet shouldn't affect me surely, I have put a lot of weight on since being pregnant, maybe it's related? xx

You can get insoles that absorb impact when you are walking, they might help. They are gel ones, Boots do them xxxxxxxx

This could be plantar facilitus I think its spelt. lol. Its referred to as policemans foot. I had it a few years ago. The best thing I can recommend is rolling your foot over a tin of hairspray or something similar. The rolling stretches the ligaments and muscles out and the cold really helps the pain.


Samsgirl - That cracked me up!! I find all sorts down mine particularly since they have grown in size and I have more of a cleavage for things to fall down. x

Vikki, if it's more a sharp pain that you're feeling rather than general discomfort / aching, it may be something which my Mum would call "bony spurs" - I can't remember the proper medical term; ask the nurse next time you're at your surgery if it doesn't improve. I don't know what can be done for it but it may help to get some thick insoles or something?

Put my message on at the same time as Leanne - I think bony spurs / policeman's foot / policeman's helmet are all the same thing.

Think I might call the physio at work tomorrow and get myself to see her just in case. I do wear insoles for collapsed metatarsals with heels, the last time I had awful problems with my feet it was a damaged disc in my lumbar spine.... oh the joys of pregnancy
