Tired & Hot Feet

Walkers and runners often experience hot feet or a burning sensation. Often overheating is caused by fixable problems with your socks and shoes and by fatigue after a long workout.

Burning feet may also be a symptom of medical conditions like athlete's foot or nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy). Treatment for burning feet depends on the underlying cause.

Often treatment can be straightforward, including:

• an antifungal for athlete’s foot
• wearing more comfortable shoes
• a corrective or shock absorbing insole or orthotic in your shoes
• massaging your feet to help improve blood flow and circulation.
