What Causes Numbness And Pain In Feet During Morning?

I am female, 23 years old and 200 lbs. For the past week or so My feet have felt numb or sore every other morning or so when I wake up. Once I walk around for about 20 seconds or so, the pain/numbness goes away. It doesn t seem serious so I didn t want to go into a doctor. My feet seem normal otherwise. I don t think that I have done too much more walking or running recently though I did go camping the weekend before this started. Can you tell me if I should go see a doctor?

Hi,

The numbness and pain in the feet could be just related to excessive physical activity - like camping which you have done and I feel that it should go away in another 3-4 days take some multivitamin and if need be you can take some pain killers also.

However if the symptoms do not go then you need to get some investigations done - like complete blood count, fasting sugar levels, vitamin B12, vitamin D levels, thyroid levels. This will help us to reach the exact diagnosis.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
