Q: Arch of foot burning

asked by: shempdev on July 3rd, 2008

I am 33 and in good health. (5' 11" 185 lbs)
I have never had any health problems, nor have I ever had any problems with my feet.
About a week ago, I noticed a very warm sensation in the arch of my left foot.
It doesn't hurt at all; it just feels like I have my foot close to a heat source.
The first time, I actually looked under my computer desk to make sure that the power strip wasn't overheating.

The sensation occurs every 15 minutes or so, but sometimes I'll go for a few hours without experiencing it at all.

I wear steel toe boots every day and have been wearing my current pair for about 3 months.

Any ideas?

heat in arch of left foot

I do not believe it has to do with steel toe shoes. I am 53 in good health and have not had problems with my feet either. Three weeks ago my left arch began heating up for about 10 seconds and cooling down just as you described. I found your post while researching for my own answers. My arch heats up while standing, sitting, lying down or in the water. Any ideas surfaced?
