How To Relieve Chronic Burning Sensation In Feet, At Night?

My mom, aged 48 years, often experiences burning sensation in her feet during night and is unable to sleep because of that. I know that the problem is internal and she needs to consult a doctor. In the meantime, please suggest a remedy or cream that will give relief to her feet from the burning sensation.

It sounds like she had neuropathy. This causes burning sensation in the feet and legs. She could try some over the counter pain medications for this but they will probably not be very helpful. She will need a thorough evaluation and some medication that is specific for neuropathy.
