Painful feet: This is how peripheral neuropathy makes itself known: numbness, tingling, stinging, burning or sensitivity of (typically) both feet, most often at night. Some patients feel odd sensations, like having a perpetual wrinkle in their socks, or the sense of a wad of tissue by the ball of the foot, electrical shocking sensations, or coldness. Diabetes, thyroid disease, and RA are risk factors.

Peripheal nerves...: Pain and temperature are the last parts of the nerve fiber to be affected. Usually the first symptoms are associated with tingling and numbness. If the symptoms worsen or do not subside, see a neurologist/podiatrist or your pcp for a more appropriate workup.
