Answer
Hi Kathy,
I suggest trying a topical anti-inflammatory. There is a new product called Voltaren Emulgel. You can get it without prescription.
Let me know how it works.
I had an additional thought. Soaking your feet in Epsom Salts may also reduce the burning sensation.
Thank you for using Allexperts
Sincerely,
Eric Brandt, B.Sc. Pharm
