A member asked:
Should i ask my doctor about celiac testing if i constantly have foot pain?

Probably not: Isolated foot pain without other symptoms is unlikely to be a manifestation of celiac disease.

Many possibilities: Your pain could be as a result of many different things. A thorough history and physical exam and possibly some laboratory and radiology exams are needed to determine the exact cause. Causes of pain may include: trauma (fracture, sprain, arthritis), infection, metabolic conditions (gout), musculoskeletal or biomechanical abnormality and neurologic conditions (neuropathy).
