What Does Burning Sensation In The Feet Indicate?
My feet burn terribly when I lay down or put them up, I have had this condition for about 6 yrs but over the last year it is much worse and more frequent. I am a 5 yr breast cancer survivor and had chemo and radiation treatment, however, I did have this occasionally prior to diognosis and treatment. Any thoughts?
