Warmness/burning in feet
Since a few weeks my right feet is feeling very warm and a little burning sensation. The warmth is not obvious through the day,but when i am free it becomes obvious. It feels as if there is too much heat and i have this urge to dip it in cold water.
What can be the reason for the warmth?
