[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. As per your history I would like to give differential. There is possibility of early plantar fasciitis, or can early arthritis. For plantar fasciitis, Shoe/footwear should be with soft sole. You can use silicon pad insoles. Avoid exposure of cold to foot. Start plantar exercises consulting physiotherapist also Physiotherapy like TENS and ultrasound will help. Take calcium supplement with it D. Do exercises of foot before getting out of bed. As per your history another possibility of inflammatory arthritis. You may need to do blood test to confirm diagnosis. When such patients come to our hospital I advise them blood test like RA factor, CCP, ESR, complete blood count, HLA B27, thyroid profile. For these symptoms' medication like methylcobalamine and analgesic will reduce pain; you can take them consulting your treating doctor. If not relieved then you may need arthroscopic release of fascia. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
