I have chronic foot pain and except for my dependance on pain-killling drugs I can't do anything. The doctors believe I suffer from 'plantar faceitious'. I have flat feet and had flat feet all my life. I'm a 57 year old male who has chronic burning and pulling pain on both of my feet. I have little relief except for when I take my pain medication which I've grown dependant on to get through the day. This has caused me to lose my job as well as my family because my whole being rests on this problem. I went to see a nerouolgist at the Hostpital of Special Surgery and I'm still waiting for the results of the major blood tests. Can this pain be due to a spinal disc? I seek help but never get an answer...
Podiatrists are dispensing a new product for plantar fasciitis called the Sole Angel Arch Support . www.supportforyoursole.com If the Drs. are correct in diagnosing you, then this may help.
