A member asked:

My feet & legs hurting me so much,it almost 3mos.now.the pain started when i always taking a bath a cold water.what would i do to reliev the pain?

Cold sensitivity: First, why do you need to bathe in cold water at all? Stop doing that if it causes a problem. If the pain remains, see a podiatrist for an evaluation and you will be on your way to alleviating the discomfort.
