Hi,
It can be due to peripheral vascular disease where the blood supply to your feet get compromised and lack of oxygen supply lead to severe pain and discomfort.
You can consult a general surgeon and plan for an arterial Doppler to assess the blood supply to your feet. As of now you can take analgesics like Tramadol or Diclofenac for pain relief. Wishing you good health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
