Q: Hands And Feet Tingle At the End of My Jog
asked by: meaganjo41 on June 27th, 2007

I've started to pick up running again and I'll usually run for 20 or 30 min and VERY fast walk for another 30 minutes. And lately I've noticed that my feet, the middle of my feet - if that makes sense, the middle and "ring" toes?? area start to tingle, and my hands tingle JUST A BIT, and itch...anyone know what's going on???? Thanks.

Hi, sounds like you are developing a Morton's neuroma. You might consider getting custom insoles, REALLY stretching your calves and feet after running, and doing deep foot massage (like when you're watching TV or something) where you work your thumb deep between all the joints in the ball of your foot.
What's happening is the nerve that runs between the fourth and fifth toe is getting irritated. Eventually, it will develop scarring that will make it even harder for it to pass through the bones on the ball of your foot, and exacerbate the problem. It'll start to feel really painful.

The massage might work to reduce the scarring, and spread apart those joints.
