I am 23 yrs old 5'10 165 lbs. I have had foot pain for the past 4 years. I started having pain after getting out of college and getting a job, which requires me to be on my feet a lot. The symptoms are strange to say the least. My feet kill me while I am standing, but not while I am moving around. I can walk,run,roller skate, and even ski with no pain, but standing even for a moment kills my feet. I have been to two Podiatrist, one sports surgeon and one bone/muscle/tissue specialist. I have tried all the normal stuff like orthotics and other shoe gadgets (magnets). I have also had several blood tests and X-rays, which have come back clean. I am currently taking a drug called neurontin (2400mg daily). This helps a little, but the pain is still too much. The pain is slowly making its way up my legs. It’s like my feet and lower legs are so sensitive that you can not even touch them. Any possible help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
