Foot PainBurning foot pain is a common complaint, usually as a result of damage to the nerves of the foot or leg. It may develop due to an injury or medical condition either of which can cause compression of the nerves.
Our nerves are the structures that carry messages to and from the brain. They tell our muscles when and how to work and are responsible for sensation including pressure and temperature. Damage to the nerves affects how these signals are transmitted.
Burning type symptoms may be constant or come and go, vary in intensity and be accompanied by other sensations such as pins and needles or numbness. It all depends on what is causing the problem.

It would be good idea to get it examined by knee specialist. May not be anything major. But you are very young to have any knee problem. Better get doubts cleared.

Try a few basic exercises to stretch and strengthen your back and supporting muscles. Repeat each exercise a few times, then increase the number of repetitions as the exercise gets easier
1.Knee-to-chest stretch
Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor (A). Using both hands, pull up one knee and press it to your chest (B). Tighten your abdominals and press your spine to the floor. Hold for 5 seconds. Return to the starting position (A) and repeat with the opposite leg (C). Return to the starting position and then repeat with both legs at the same time (D). Repeat each stretch two to three times — preferably once in the morning and once at night.
2. Lower back rotational stretch
Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor (A). Keeping your shoulders firmly on the floor, roll your bent knees to one side (B). Hold for five to 10 seconds. Return to the starting position (C). Repeat on the opposite side (D). Repeat each stretch two to three times — preferably once in the morning and once at night.
3. Lower back flexibility exercise
Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor (A). Tighten your abdominal muscles so your stomach pulls away from your waistband (B). Hold for five seconds and then relax. Flatten your back, pulling your bellybutton toward the floor (C). Hold for five seconds and then relax. Repeat. Start with five repetitions each day and gradually work up to 30.
4. Bridge exercise
Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor (A). Keeping your shoulders and head relaxed on the floor, tighten your abdominal and gluteal muscles. Then raise your hips to form a straight line from your knees to your shoulders (B). Try to hold the position long enough to complete three deep breaths. Return to the starting position (C). Repeat. Start with five repetitions each day and gradually work up to 30.
5. Cat stretch
Position yourself on your hands and knees (A). Slowly arch your back, as if you're pulling your abdomen up toward the ceiling (B). Then slowly let your back and abdomen sag toward the floor (C). Return to the starting position (A). Repeat three to five times twice a day.
6. Seated lower back rotational stretch
Sit on an armless chair or a stool. Cross your right leg over your left leg. Bracing your left elbow against the outside of your right knee, twist and stretch to the side (A). Hold for 10 seconds. Repeat on the opposite side (B). Repeat this stretch three to five times on each side twice a day.
7. Shoulder blade squeeze
Sit on an armless chair or a stool (A). While maintaining good posture, pull your shoulder blades together (B). Hold for five seconds and then relax. Repeat three to five times twice a day.

With age comes numerous health complications. Arthritis is one such complication that affects many people, especially, in their old age. However, it will be wrong to generalize, for arthritis can, and have affected many young people as well. Arthritis of the foot can be equally unpleasant. In this type of arthritis, the joints of the foot are affected. The feet bear the whole weight of the body. Thus, with time, or an injury can damage and breakdown the joint cartilages. As a result, a person will experience pain and difficulty in walking.
As already known, there are 28 bones and as many as 33 joints present in each foot. In foot arthritis, the soft tissue (synovium) that lines these joints in the foot gets inflamed. Though arthritis can occur in any of the joints, the foot joints mostly affected include
- The first metatarsophalangeal joint (The great toe).
- The metatarsocuneiform joint (midfoot).
- The tibiotalar joint (ankle).
- The subtalar or talocalcaneal joint, the calcaneocuboid joint, and the talonavicular joint (hindfoot).
Symptoms of Foot Arthritis:
As seen in most types of arthritis, a person with foot arthritis may experience
- Moderate to excruciating pain in the feet.
- Tenderness.
- Stiffness and swelling in the joints.
- Difficulty in walking and moving (i.e. the movement gets restricted).
Types of Foot Arthritis:
- Osteoarthritis: In foot osteoarthritis, there is a breakdown (or damage) of the joint cartilage due to continuous wear and tear.
- Post-traumatic arthritis: The trigger for post-traumatic arthritis may be a foot injury (recently or in the past) like fracture or sprain, ligament tear.
- Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an autoimmune condition where a person's own immune system attacks and damages the cartilage, resulting in inflammation of the synovium.
- Gout Foot: In this type of arthritis, there is an accumulation of uric acid crystals in the foot joints. The Gout Foot is a painful and uncomfortable condition that can completely disable a person.
Diagnosis and Treatment:
Do not neglect any pain or swelling in the feet. A timely diagnosis will make the treatment effective. Foot arthritis can be diagnosed by
- Physical examination.
- X-ray of the affected area and joint.
- Imaging tests like the CT scan and MRI can also help diagnose foot arthritis.
Treatment for foot arthritis may be time taking. Depending on the severity, doctors may suggest surgical or non-surgical treatments. The various non-surgical treatments include
- Corticosteroids go a long way in reducing the inflammation. Thus, patients with foot arthritis are given corticosteroid injections in the joints.
- NSAIDs (Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs), as well as analgesics, provide great relief from swelling and pain.
- Braces may be used to support to the inflamed joint(s).
- In foot arthritis, wearing the right footwear is important. Custom-made shoes, arch supports, shoe supports, and pads can also help improve the condition.
If the non-surgical treatments fail to produce the desired result, doctors may opt for surgical treatments like
- Joint replacement surgery
- Fusion surgery: Here, the bones are fused together using plates, rods, screws.
In addition to the above treatments, a person will need
- Physiotherapy and exercises (as advised by the doctor or physiotherapist).
- Maintain a healthy body weight and eat a healthy, balanced diet.
- Women should not wear heel shoes.
In case you have a concern or query you can always consult an expert & get answers to your questions!
Health Query
Dear, generally it happens in mid thirty and beyond ages. Some times it may be due to some trauma also. You can do vigorous knee pumping exercise by which that fluid may be reabsorbed or consult physiotherapist.
