I have constant pain in my left foot. Strangely the pain shifts every day; sometimes on the outside edge, then at the base of the big toe, then above the heel, then on the outside ankle, then the inside ankle etc. Also, every morning when I awake, my feet are the same size however after arising, my left foot swells throughout the day. This repeats every day. This condition happened after one of my chronic gout attacks. Any ideas?
Hello I have studied your case, suggest sequela of chronic gouty arthritis with possible osteomyelitis. In gout there is accumulation of uric acid crystals in joint mainly foot. This leads to swelling and redness in foot. I will advise doing blood in like complete blood count, uric acid level, and foot scan. Till time take analgesic and neurotrophic like methylcobalamin. For gout you may need medicine accordingly and diet restriction. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
