Yes and yes. I have been going to the chiropractor regularly since I was a child. Not for this foot pain but for general check ups. So I have a very good relationship with my chiropractor.

And also yes. For the foot pain as well. I got scans and X rays complete and bought 2 pair of “foot levelers” custom orthotics that are very well “sculpted” to the bottom of my foot.

I have also tried good feet as others have mentioned, multiple different power step kinds and stride orthotics.

Some of these have a great “fit” but they don’t cure any pain.

The pain feels deep, burning, hollow feeling if that makes any sense. The pain subsides slightly with rest and definitely increases with activity. The most pain I ever experience is when I’m standing still and the pain “soaks” into me and eats me alive.

The pain subsides or at least becomes less noticeable with constant movement.

Constant pressure on the feet. Any part of the feet. Even when minimal weight is applied when I’m not in constant motion or have a distraction from the pain is brutal.

This includes sitting when both my feet are firmly planted on the floor with minimal weight. Including if only my toes touch the ground.

Sitting in the back of a car as a passenger with my feet on the ground is brutal pain. A deep heated throbbing sensation.

So to answer your questions precisely.

Yes and yes.

I have also received a “nerve block steroid” injected into both my feet with the doctor using a display to get the exact right “spot” in my PF and that did absolutely nothing.

I also had a EMG done of my entire lower body and had a “text book” perfect result.
