It is the arches, ankles and toes mostly. I was told once that there is a layer of 'cushioning' on the soles of our feet, and mine has worn thin so sometimes it feels like I'm walking on bone. When I have over done it, they tingle like blazes.
Mups have you ever had any phiso on your feet, I think exercises may help.

No I haven't Meg. No one has ever suggested that, so I never thought of it. I might ask about that whenever I can get to see somebody again!


Thank you Pesta. Hug gratefully received. x

Yes true....painful heels for instance can settle down spontaneously even after many months of causing trouble, some foot problems though will go on to be persistent and osteoarthritis is a good example.
