Experiencing foot pain at night can disrupt sleep and signal underlying issues. Plantar fasciitis often leads to sharp heel pain during the night, stemming from inflammation in the tissue connecting the heels to the toes. Morton’s neuroma, a condition involving a swollen nerve between the toes, can cause burning or tingling sensations that worsen when resting. Pregnancy may bring about foot pain due to increased weight and hormonal changes affecting ligaments. Fibromyalgia, a disorder the results in widespread musculoskeletal pain, can also cause foot discomfort. Additionally, diabetes can lead to neuropathy, resulting in pain, tingling, or numbness in the feet, which may be more noticeable at night. If you have foot pain any time during the day or night, it is suggested that you contact a podiatrist who can diagnose and treat foot conditions.
