Jessiedog67 can you try to describe the pain - where it is and how it feels. I get a lot of pain mid-foot underneath. Have you tried applying heat or cold when you are sitting down? I find hot water bottles can also be cold water bottles - it's surprisingly nice if it takes the pain down.

Also sometimes my feet feel like they are trying to make a "fist" ie curl up tight - this happens particularly at night. A few very gentle calf stretches seem to help this one.
