This is exactly the compression and squeezing of my muscles in both feet that I haven’t been able to get a diagnosis for in over 2 years. Thankfully I don’t have the pains you feel, just the constant feeling that my feet are in a vise, and it’s getting progressively tighter. I have gotten bigger shoes and the suggested orthotics, which change nothing. I very seldom wear shoes, but the feeling never changes. I don’t think it’s neuropathy either, though 2 doctors diagnosed that, and I’ve tried the supposed supplements for it with no effect. A chiropractor said it might be an “entrapped nerve,” but adjustments brought no improvement. A functional doctor from a blood test thinks it is folate drficiency, and I’m taking that, but it’s not helping either. I don’t know where to try next.

I have a very similar experience in both my lower legs (calf areas) and it radiates to my feet. I also wear larger shoes and orthotics in one shoe as I broke that foot a year ago. As well, I have not had any answers either.

I know the feeling. My feet feels like I have blisters on the bottoms of them. They are red and irritated on the toes and near the front of my feet. It feels like the skin on my feet is being rubbed with sand paper. Or like you described it. Like dried glue. Or it feels like a sharp tingling sensation. Mine has been going on for about 2 years now. I am 43 years old. I need answers fast. Because it hurts worse in the mornings. I believe. The pain is unbearable.
