You mentioned in another discussion that you apply pressure on your feet with your thumb roughly one inch below your toes in the center daily and also put magnesium on your feet and wrist area to help you sleep at night. How long have you been doing this? Does it help with the burning?

It sounds like mortons Neuroma to me. I bought over the counter "Ball of Foot" (Dr Scholl's brand) shoe inserts. You position them just below the toes in your runners or hiking boots. I did a couple other things, like used toe spacers (also over the counter at a drug store in the foot section. I used the twice a day for about 5 minutes. Also I did hot soaks for my feet just before bed every night to improve circulation about 5 minutes. Burning and pain left.
