can being sick make your feet hurt?

Since I have been sick the bottom of my feet have been really sore. when I walk around.. especially barefoot it feels like the bottoms of my feet are bruised but there is no reason that they would be bruised. I have not been on my feet a lot so there is no reason for them to hurt.

I have never heard of that, maybe you are lying down more so you are not getting circulation?

maybe that's it... I did hurt my back also just the other day so on the weekend Brian was in charge of all baby related duties and I coudlnt' be on my feet too long or my back would start to really ache so I guess I did spend the majority of the weekend laying on the couch.

I don't know... but they HURT.

Definitely sounds like lack of circulation - ease back into walking around, or at least dangling your feet off the edge of the bed. Mild exercise, okay?

In reflexology, there are points in your feet (and hands) that correspond to other parts of your body and organs, too. For instance, the big toe can be treated as your head and the sinuses are located there, also on the tips of each toe. So depending on what your illness has been, the feet can reflect it back to you w/pain and/or soreness. If you stimulate certain areas on the feet w/massage, it can activate healing. A reflexologist worked on my toes once to unclog my sinuses and it worked so well that, on my way home, I had to pull the car over because my sinuses were draining so badly. Maybe a good foot massage will help you. :)

This is all so true.

I always have alot more pain when I don't feel well or when I haven't had enough sleep. I feel the body can do weird things when being compromised by other factors. My answer is YES......

I agree with Medussa. Also just a few of the conditions that can make the soles of your feet unbearably sore are rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, m.s. etc.

well... I will be sure to make hubby rub my feet tonight LOL.

I also have plantar fasciitis so maybe that is acting up as well since I have been going barefoot a lot instead of wearing slippers or my crocs

they are still a little sore. when I walk on the carpet they don't really hurt but once I step onto the hardwood or the tile floor they ache like crazy. but... my cold is almost gone so at least that's something lol.

has anyone ever heard of or tried those foot pads that are supposed to "detox" your system? I wonder if they work or would help.

I heated up my little rice bags last night and set my feet on them and that felt really good.
