Toes

[Margaret]

I have started to suffer from sore toes that seem to be worse at night has anybody found anything that helps. I have been taking Armour for about 3 years now and this problem has only started recently.

Margaret, this is ringing bells with me but I don't want to jump in without knowing more. Can you describe what you're experiencing in more detail?

They feel very sore as if I have chilblaines but I know that it is not chilblanies it is like aburning sensation I just feel I want to cool them down. It is under the toe's on the baball.

Ok, unfortunately this is what I thought you might say! I know what you mean and it is very unpleasant. There are several causes of burning feelings in the feet.

Here's a useful document from the Australian family Physician that might help to point you in the right direction.

Burning feet syndrome

If the burning is bad enough to keep you awake at night, then you might want to print this out and take it to your doctor.

That was a very interesting read , I have had this in the pastbut it seems to have gone !, I am taking vit D now but don't know if its related ! I did find it useful to have cotton socks on for bed as I felt it worse when I had bare feet .

I think it's just another part of being Hypo !!!

Me too, I have the same sensations all over the bottom of my feet as well as the toes and I have very painful rough stratchy hard skin. My only relief is buckets of foot cream or body moisturiser daily.
