I actually have not been seen or been diagnosed by a doctor. However, I have been doing a lot of research and the symptoms that everyone in this platform are describing are exactly what i have been experiencing the past year and a 1/2.
Have not seen a doctor, due to Covid.
This pain just started "Out of the Blue One Day"
I woke up one morning and could barely walk.
The Pain was in the upper part of my foot, between the middle and the crease that begins the front of the ankle joint (Right Foot)
At first the pain stayed a few weeks and then went away. A few months later, it was back!
It has continued to come and go randomly ever since.
Recently, the pain has become an incredible deep burning sensation, almost, in the bones themselves.
The weird thing is, the pain moves at random every so often. It shows up closer to the middle part of the top of my foot and continues to where my toes begin..
TOP RIGHT FOOT NEAR ANKLE JOINT is it's favorite place.

HELP!!!!!!!

I've tried using topical medication creams, wrapping it with athletes tape, massagers, soaking in epson's salts, LOTS of ADVIL, elevating my feet at night, Hot compress, Cold compress.
All have done some good, but just temporary.
Then randomly, IT'S GONE!
AND then, a few months later..... IT'S BACK!!!!
Thanks so much!!!

Hello @jsailor, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. I know it's difficult when you have severe pain that comes and goes and nothing seems to help when the pain comes. It's great that you are trying to figure out the cause of your pain but your really need to see a orthopedic doctor or specialist to get to the bottom of what is causing your symptoms. As patients we can only share our symptoms, experiences and what has helped us.

There are many different conditions that share similar symptoms and sometimes doing your own research on the Internet can be a little scary and misleading. Are you able to make an appointment with your doctor to discuss the symptoms and what you have tried to help with the pain?

I had almost the exact same thing happen starting in November 2021 several days after my first Shingles vaccine, it’s gotten so bad some days walking is excruciating and I’ve started having some tingling and numbness.
