Hi Olive2709,

I find keeping them really warm helps. That means woollen socks (M&S men's lambs wool) and bed socks (thickness varies during the year). The pain is often worse in summer when the weather gets a bit cooler and I do not change footwear accordingly. Exercise like heal raises helps too as does making an effort to bend the toe joint when walking, although it hurts to start with. I wear Superfeet inlays. They redistribute the weight from the toe joint to the arch. Some shoes, specially trainers are well built up in the arch and give a similar effect. Paying attention to these details has helped me banish the little devil with red hot poker. I found your image very apt.

I have Gout, Osteoarthritis and Fibromyalgia and my bodies on fire most of the time. I suffer a lot with my feet and I have a very very sweet tooth in fact I'm amazed I've any teeth left. I probably do not look at the diet as much as I should. I gave up Alcohol in the beginning of Dec and I'm on a Gout preventative but its not preventing anything so whats the deal with the diet is it to lose weight or do you reckon theres a connection with sweet treats and pain.

Yeh I have done a lot of reading online and everyone seems to be saying change diet as it is the sugar and fat intake and nightshade foods that makes us worse
