What causes tarsalgia (pain in both feet), and what medicines should I take to treat it?

Asked by Female, 45 · 34 minutes ago

Tarsalgia, or pain in the midfoot area, can affect both feet due to overuse, ill-fitting footwear, flat feet, arthritis, or nerve compression. To manage the discomfort, over-the-counter pain relievers like NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen or naproxen) can help reduce pain and inflammation, while acetaminophen can help with general pain relief. However, these medications only temporarily mask the symptoms. For long-term relief, I highly recommend resting your feet, using ice packs, wearing supportive shoes with orthotic inserts, and consulting a podiatrist to identify the exact cause and discuss a tailored treatment plan.
