Why Is Barefoot Walking Painful?
GOOD AFTERNOON, I LOVE TO WALK BAREFOOT. AM FLATFOOTED. FOR ABOUT A YR A STRANGE BURNING PAIN STARTED ON THE LEFT OUTER SIDE OF LEFT FOOT. NOW I FIND WALKING BAREFOOT PAINFULL AND TIGHT STRAPED SHOES ARE COMFORTABLE. IS THIS A SIDE FOOT SPUR? AND REQUIRE FOOT SURGERY? THANKS AND HAVE A GOOD AFTERNOON.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain that you feel on walking barefoot can be due to a bony spur or due to the flat foot that you have. You can use a soft cushioned footwear for relief.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
