Do your feet hurt at night? Foot pain from standing too long or wearing improper footwear is common, but often foot pain is a sign of bigger health issues. If your big toe is painful, hot, or swollen, it could be a sign of gout, an inflammatory condition where your uric acid is too high. Cramps in your feet could mean you are dehydrated or that you have an electrolyte imbalance. And if you are one of those cold feet warm heart people – be sure to get checked for anemia or circulatory issues. Also, if your feet swell every evening, be sure to have your heart checked out thoroughly. Never ignore your feet – they could be trying to tell you something.
