Hi,

It may be due to nerve impingement or weakness of nerves supplying your feet.

You can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Gabapentin for pain relief.

If symptoms persist better to consult a neurologist and get a nerve conduction study done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
