Hot feet: It is not because of salt in the food unless your feet are also swollen. My concern would be about peripheral neuropathy (the nerves in your feet being damaged) giving you a "burning" sensation. Please have an evaluation done by your doctor.

Unlikely: it is unlikely that hot feet result from salt in diet.
