Asked for male, 74 years old from Cuttack

I am 76 years old Gent. My both foot are burning. I have no diabetes. What is the cause & what medicine I will take?

Dr. Anshumali Srivastava89%(1365 ratings)

Dentist•Gorakhpur

There is no limitation that burning sensation of feet will occur in diabetes. It can be nerve degeneration in your age, but if you are otherwise healthy, it can be prolonged. Another contributer is smoking and/or drinking alcohol. You start taking vitamin b Complex (specially vitamin B3 vitamin B12 and folic acid) .if your problem improved continue with the same and visit a physician for exact clinical evaluation of your problem. Have a great day.

I have an extra bone on side of foot but its not paining .can I surgically remove it and do all athletic games.

Dr. Shimali Mathur

BPTh/BPT

Physiotherapist•Mumbai

Its important to find out the reason for bone growth. If its by birth then it can be surgically removed but if it has happened due to unequal loading of ankle then bone growth will happen again aftr surgery. Get a physio to check your walking pattern and any foot deformities.

Now if infection is there it necessary to visit a podiatrist (diabetes foot specialist). It is a seroius matter. Thanks.

You need to use finger splint as a method of skin traction (the most effective method for jammed fingers). No need to take painkillers, it will subside itself. For getting back the sensation you need to opt for some ayurvedic neuropromotive remedies. You may consult me privately or whatsapp on mobile for a proper ayurvedic consultation.

As you get up and move, the pain normally decreases, but it might return after long periods of standing or when you stand up after sitting.
