My feet hurt. Why?
The main cause of foot pain
1, at any time of the day, no matter what you are doing at that time, if you suddenly feel a sharp throbbing pain in your big toe, then you can't remember whether your toe was hit by something, hit by something or stepped on by someone else, but it's unbearable! Find a place to take off your shoes and socks and look at your toes. If your toes are red and swollen, it hurts when you touch them lightly, then you have trouble with gout. If the same situation has happened before, or diuretics have been used regularly, then the diagnosis result is closer. The function of diuretics is not only to expel excess fluid and lower blood pressure, but also to increase the content of uric acid in blood. Once uric acid seeps into joints, it will lead to the typical gout symptoms mentioned above.
2. There are many joints in the foot, which will be attacked by all kinds of arthritis. It is generally believed that only hands can get rheumatoid arthritis. In fact, the small joints of the foot may also suffer from this disease, which makes patients feel severe pain in their feet whether they are walking or resting. This kind of pain is chronic and lasts for a long time. At the same time, like other parts of the body suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, the affected part will swell and deform.
3, foot artery occlusion: when the foot can not get enough blood, the instep will hurt, only when walking at first, and then even when resting.
4. Blood clot: When any blood vessel leading to the foot is suddenly blocked, the foot will suddenly feel severe pain, feel cold and numb, and turn pale or even blue. This phenomenon indicates a blood clot or arteriosclerosis.
The blood clot was originally located in the blood vessel near the heart, but now it has left the original stagnant position and moved down the artery. Embolism is an emergency, so we must send a doctor for emergency treatment immediately, because the condition of the foot affected by embolism will be very dangerous.
If the foot is exposed to cold weather, the artery of the foot may spasm. At this time, the toe has pulsating pain, and the toe skin turns blue first and then white. When the toes get warmer, blood will flow back to the toes, and the skin will return to its original color, but the pain will become more serious. This disease, commonly known as "Raynaud's disease" or "Raynaud's syndrome", is caused by the temperature drop. This phenomenon usually does not happen to normal people, and it belongs to an autoimmune situation, which mostly happens to women.
6. Neuropathy causes foot pain. Nerves distributed in the foot are distributed from the spine. When an intervertebral disc in the spine compresses a nerve that will be distributed to the foot, the nerve will feel pain from its origin (spine) to its end (foot).
7, thumb tip swelling, warts, corns, nails inward growth, sprain, toes bent into an arch. Can cause foot pain.
