How Can Severe Pain In The Right Foot Be Treated?

I am having bad issues with my right foot...And have so for 2 years....I have pain bad enough to keep me from walking much further than 50 yds....My AiC is normal, I have never smoked in my life and I drink socially....I am NOT diabetic....One Dr.. says I have anterior tarsal tunnel and it can be fixed by surgery.......He did a conduction nerve study....Then when I took my Macon study to Atl...they wanted to do their own at Emory and my podiatrist said I didn t have any of this nerve problem....lying down does not give me pain relief....I almost deal with this 24/7.....I have taken gabapentin lyrica and Cymbalta....To not get any relief at all all....with giving them a chance....Mobic, Naproxen or none of the anti inflammatory give me relief....I do get some relief with lidocaine patches.....I also purchased a Quell Machine and have been using tens w machines without much relief..... I have had two foot surgeries and 4 back surgeries....The last back surgery was Nov 3rd 2016.... Fusion of L4 L5 and S1........My last foot surgery was on May 3rd of this year........The bad thing is I can t get any help for my back, because I can t walk to keep things moving.....Thanks in advance for your help......Duke Lane

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

* As per my clinical experience, the severe pain in right foot is in relation with neurologic compression of the components around ankle.

I would recommend to consult with a fresh MRI report.

Hope I have answered your query.
