Does anyone get in bed and the bottom of their feet hurt? I have read in here about ankles and the top of feet hurting but what about the bottom?

Absolutely! The bottom of my feet hurt just about all the time. It doesn't matter what kind of shoes I wear, either. I have orthodics, I always wear shoes with plenty of support, still have pain. I walk like an old lady!

yes and it feels like bruised feet..it comes and goes just like all the others if that helps...

I have myofascial pain that can cause pain just about anywhere, including all areas of the feet. It used to be so unbearable, I couldn't sleep but now that I do trigger point massage on the active trigger points, the pain isn't a problem most of the time.

Here's a link to diagrams showing myofascial trigger points in the feet:

I have pain on the bottom of my feet. Just went to the foot doc today and she said I have Plantar fibromatosis which is thickening of the feet's deep connective tissue, or fascia.

I also wear orthotics to keep my foot from turning in. Ice helps as does stretching. I also have feet and toe cramps at night.

Yes I do..I can feel lumps and bumps all through the feet tissue. It comes and goes in flares all through my body.

Absolutely i have pain on the bottom of my feet too think its from the constant cramps i have there but it also feels like someone is stabbing me with needles.

The bottom of my feet almost always hurt. It feels like someone has beat them with a cane.

The bottom of my feet hurt all the time, like a tingly pain - pin stabbing. Sometimes it's so bad when in bed at night, the weight of the blankets make it worse.

Thank you everyone for your comments. I feel awful that you all have this problem but I feel good that I am not the only one, if that makes any sense.
Thank you and Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers out there!

Yes. My feet hate me. I added to the problem by wrenching my ankle 6 weeks ago. I can't even sit without shooting pain searing my heel. You just have to keep walking, you know?
