Suggest Treatment For Throbbing Pain In The Foot

The bottom of my feet hurt if I am standing or sitting with them on the floor. I also get a sharp pain that runs up through them sometimes for about 5 - 10 seconds. When I put them up they are pretty good except when I first put them up I get a few sharp pains through them. Verna

Physical therapy by shock wave give good relief. A local steroid injection at the site of the pain is another option if this persists.
Meanwhile check your uric acid level in blood and if diabetic make sure its wll controlled
