Burning feet is a common complaint, especially among people over 50 and those who are diabetic.
Thyroid dysfunction, gastric restriction in morbidly obese people, and heavy use of alcohol also have been linked with burning feet.
Neuroma and tarsal tunnel syndrome, which causes a pinched nerve, also can result in burning feet.
