hi

I am looking for some help in finding what is the problem with my toes and lower legs and ankles. At night time especially, i get shooting pains in all my toes, my ankles ache, and the backs of my lower legs ache. i cant seem to keep still and i seem to be very itchy.

its all a bit strange really, but its so annoying as it keeps me awake at night and i end up quite tired. my toes feet and lower legs also ache during the day but the nightime is definately the worst. sometimes the shooting pains make my leg or foot jump like i have had a electric shock. could anyone please advise me on what it may be please, thanks

Sound something like what I have. I get really bad shooting pain into my toes especially at night so I get really tired from lack of sleep. I was taking injection treatments for Morton's neuroma then had a tarsal tunnel surgery. Some of the foot pain left after the tarsal tunnel surgery in June but the shooting pain is still in my toes. It is so bad I jump involuntarily. I have been taking Lyrica and Percocet (Which I hate). The medication is actually a love hate relationship. It helps with the pain but then I feel really bad the next day. Have your doctor check for Morton's neuroma.
