Burning Feet: Causes, Symptoms, and When to See a Doctor

Burning feet involve a sensation of intense heat, prickling, or stinging – as if the feet are on fire. The skin may appear red and swollen, and walking or standing can be painful.

Potential Causes

• Nerve damage (neuropathy)
• Poor circulation
• Medical conditions (diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, kidney disease, etc.)

If burning feet persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
