A member asked:

Why would one get terrible foot pain only when laying down?

See your doctor: This problem can only be solved by seeing your doctor and being evaluated face-to-face. After a thorough examination, your doctor should be able to tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.

Www.ACFAS.org: Your best approach would be to find a board certified foot and ankle surgeon......To perform a thorough physical examination and reveal your medical history to determine any causes of your foot pain and discomfort. Try: www.Acfas.Org to a physician close-by.
