Prolonged pain in the soles of the feet can be a sign of a health problem that needs attention.The cause is not always simple.Pain can come from minor injuries to certain medical conditions.
You need to recognize the causes and symptoms, so you can treat them appropriately.Here are some possible causes of pain in the soles of the feet.
1. Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes.According
Very Well Health
, this condition occurs due to inflammation of the connective tissue under the foot called the plantar fascia.This tissue stretches from the heel to the base of the toes.
Symptoms that appear can include sharp or dull pain, even a burning sensation in the soles of the feet.Usually, the pain is most pronounced when you first step on the floor in the morning.
People who experience plantar fasciitis usually have flat feet, are overweight, often walk or stand on hard surfaces, walk barefoot, including the effects of pregnancy.
2. Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis or joint inflammation, which usually occurs in the knees, can actually make the soles of the feet painful too.How could that be?
When arthritis occurs, sufferers often change the way they walk.These changes can affect the pressure on the feet, causing pain in the soles.
A small study published in the journal Musculoskeletal Care (2023), shows that plantar fasciitis often occurs together with knee osteoarthritis, especially with pain in the heel.
3. Metatarsalgia
Metatarsalgia is a condition that causes pain in the front of the foot, specifically in the area of the five metatarsal bones that connect the ankle to the toes.
The pain is usually sharp, aching, or burning, and gets worse when standing, walking, or running.This condition is often experienced by people who do high-impact activities, such as running or jumping.Metatarsalgia is also often experienced by middle-aged women.
4. Calluses and foot warts
Calluses and foot warts can also cause sore feet.Both of these conditions arise due to friction or repeated pressure from shoes that don’t fit properly.

, calluses are usually a thickening of the skin without a core, while warts have a hard core in the center.Both of these conditions can be treated by yourself, such as soaking your feet and rubbing them with a pumice stone.
However, if symptoms such as bleeding or infection appear, or if you have diabetes, you should consult the relevant doctor.
5. Plantar warts
Warts in the plantar area of the soles of the feet can appear due to infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) virus which enters through small wounds in the skin.
According
Cleveland Clinic
, these warts can be contagious and spread through direct contact or sharing items, such as shoes and socks.
Plantar warts can be painful and force you to change the way you walk to avoid pain.Although these warts can go away on their own in one to two years, your doctor can recommend treatment to reduce pain and prevent spread.
6. High uric acid
When uric acid levels are high, you are at risk of developing arthritis which causes pain and swelling.Although pain often occurs in the fingers, knees or other joints, areas of the soles of the feet such as the heels can also experience it.
Pain attacks due to gout usually last for one to two weeks with very painful symptoms.After an attack, symptoms may disappear for a while before appearing again.
This is an explanation of pain in the soles of the feet which can be caused by various conditions, ranging from minor injuries to chronic diseases.
If the pain does not subside, you should consult a foot specialist to get the right diagnosis and treatment.
