Question 1

pain underside of foot and burning on underside of big toe left foot ?

Accepted Answer

Burning pain: Foot pain can have many causes.  Be sure that there is no injury to the area, and no skin breakdown.  Plantar fascitis can present like this.  Another condition to consider is tarsal tunnel syndrome which is a pinched nerve in the ankle region, that can affect the bottom of the foot.  Keep track of whether the pain is worse when standing, as this might signify more of an orthopedic/podiatry issue.

Question 2

terrible burning feet at night. my sugar count is normal.
sometimes it feels like my big toes goes dead?

Accepted Answer

Neurological consult: If you live in a cold area, this could affect the feeling and sensation in your feet. If it is not a metabolic problem like diabetes it could be a positional problem on your sciatic nerve. I would seek a neurological consult

Question 3

burning sensation in my toes , it happens on and off...but more frequently of late, it's only present on two toes on my right foot?

Accepted Answer

Need testing: Burning in your toes could signify a problem with your nerve endings called neuropathy. Consider getting your blood sugar tested, as neuropathy related to diabetes is common.. Could be mechanical and something called a neuroma -- nerve bundle at the web spaced between those 2 toes is irritated. Wider toebox shoes and anti-inflammatories (ibuprofen, naproxen, etc) could help.

Pain with burning : And numbness into your toe sounds like a neuroma. A nerve which might be irritated or compressed. Wear loose shoes and seek a podiatrist help if your symptoms do not improve or worsen.

Question 7

You need to figure: Out why you are swollen......then determine if the stinging and burning are related or not....what did your doctor say? Have you seen one? If not, it would be a good time too....

Question 8

itching irritation burning sensation in and around my feet &toes.             m?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities : While fungus  (athlete’s feet) is a common problem with these symptoms, it is not the only one. Try an anti fungal agent such as Micatin cream for a week , wear cotton socks changed daily, anti fungal powder to keep feet dry,  and if your problem continues, see a podiatrist or your family doctor.

Question 9

male, middle age. have occasional burning/tingling sensation in my 3 middle toes on my left foot only.  not diabetic.

Accepted Answer

Could be a neuroma: If just 2 or 3 toes are 'numb' this could be from a specific type of nerve irritation called a neuroma. If all the toes are numb, something else may be going on.  See a podiatrist for a physical exam and diagnosis... Then specific treatment is much easier to recommend.
