Thanks you, Adiemus, for your thoughts on where the problem may stem from. I do plan on going to my GP (called MDs in the US I think) but that will have to wait until the New Year. I want to go with as much information as I can so he can refer me to the appropriate specialist. I looked up flat feet on Wikipedia and my feet seem to have a normal arch given that I leave a normal footprint and they look okay. I have always had dreadful circulation and cold feet so that's something to consider. Luckily, I live very close to the beach and I can think of nothing nicer than taking some walks with my family to see if it helps.
Hi, Aniseteph. I'm not taking anything for the pain, I tend to avoid anything if I can, but thank you so much for that info about asthma and pain medication. I had seen warnings on my husbands flu tablets about it and I'll be careful to always check labels from now on if I do need pain relief.
My wonderful children gave me a full feet treatment last night - foot wash, scrub and a massage with oils. Luffly.
