Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain like you have described seems to be a musculoskeletal pain due to an inflammation or a muscle spasm. Most of the times such pains can be relieved by taking rest and mild pain killers like ibuprofen. Doing a hot fomentation in the painful area will also help. In case the pain is persistent for more than 3 days then you may get some muscle relaxants prescribed from your physician.
The pain in the foot with an electric shock like feeling can be due to a vitamin B 12 deficiency or a mild nerve root compression at the level of lumbar spine. Taking proper supplements will be helpful.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
