Multiple myeloma is characterized by: excruciating bone pain, pathological fractures, vertebral compression fractures (radiculitis, spinal cord compression), hypercalcemia.
small areas of skin; bone pain; tumor in the abdominal cavity; enlarged liver or spleen.
— Melanoma is characterized by: skin changes, changes in warts, bumps on the skin, including changes in size, shape, color and texture, bleeding.
— Pain in the bones of the legs is especially severe with syphilis and usually bothers patients at night.
— Deficiency of minerals in food, impaired absorption of them in the intestines, or impaired uptake of them into bone tissue.
— Vitamin D deficiency or metabolic disorders.
Pain in the leg bones when walking and in the back can be a sign of osteomalacia (softening of the bones), a vitamin D deficiency that weakens the bones and can sometimes be mistaken for osteoporosis. Even if your body has enough calcium, it needs vitamin D to build or maintain bones. Vitamin D deficiency is most likely to occur in people who consume little milk, have kidney disease, liver disease, or diabetes, take anticonvulsant medications, or rarely get sun exposure.
A deficiency of thiamine, or vitamin B1, is accompanied, among other symptoms, by a burning and tingling sensation in the feet and calves and muscle cramps in the legs. The reason for these pains is that without thiamine, the nerves in the feet and hands begin to deteriorate and may eventually die. With a lack of other B vitamins, false painful “flares” and pain when compressed by adjacent tendons or bones may occur in the nerves.
Of course, these same nerve diseases can be caused by other reasons, primarily alcohol abuse, diabetes and monotonous movements. However, some doctors believe that even when the problem is not due to malnutrition, some B multivitamins may be helpful.
Parathyroid osteodystrophy, generalized osteodystrophy, generalized fibrous cystic osteodystrophy. Hormonally active tumor of the parathyroid gland, causing bone degeneration. The basis of bone damage is a degenerative process associated with impaired mineral metabolism. These changes disappear after removal of the parathyroid tumor. Women aged 30-40 years are affected. The tumor develops in one of the parathyroid glands and often has an atypical localization (behind the sternum). The hormonal activity of adenomas is different, which causes different intensity of manifestation of the disease. In the early stages, vague bone pain, muscle weakness, increased fatigue, and headache are noted. Later, loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal pain are observed, and there may be persistent diarrhea. Sometimes the symptoms of kidney stones are in the foreground. Various bone deformations are detected: thickening, tuberosity or curvature, which lead to shortening of the limb and lameness. In some cases, clinical manifestations begin with a pathological fracture. Subsequent fractures may be painless.
- pain in the affected bones;
- bone deformities (lower limbs, spine);
— neurological disorders (compression neuropathies, deafness, dizziness);
- X-ray signs (restructuring of the bone pattern, deformations, thickening of the affected parts of the bones);
- increased activity of alkaline phosphatase in the blood.

The foot is the final section of the lower limb. The department includes the metatarsus, tarsus, and fingers. Also heel, sole, arch, instep, dorsum. The arch of the foot refers to the part of the sole that does not come into contact with the surface when walking.
People, regardless of age, experience pain in their feet and lower extremities. The causes of pain are associated with pathologies.
Foot pain can be acute or chronic. The first type is characterized by short-term manifestations. Chronic pain occurs over a long period of time. Diseases of the foot cause numbness, swelling, burning, itching, and changes in the skin of the foot. Symptoms appear in different areas of the foot. Pain is a consequence of disease of the foot and the whole body. Treatment and diagnosis are based on the characteristics of pain and the underlying pathology.
If you experience burning, itching, or pain in your feet, you need to see a doctor to make a diagnosis. The doctor will prescribe the necessary treatment.
Every medical professional knows the structure of the bones of the human body. An ordinary person should have a superficial knowledge of the structure of the body. The state of health and the ability to eliminate the causes of diseases depend on knowledge. You cannot make a diagnosis yourself. If there is pain in the metatarsal bone, the patient will know where it hurts and tell the doctor. It is easier for a doctor to make a diagnosis and prescribe the necessary medications.
The metatarsal bone is formed from the components:
The longest part of the metatarsus is the body; the base of the bone is massive and short. The base of the metatarsus is more often damaged due to its unusual shape. The treatment takes a long time.
The first metatarsus has two platforms, with adjacent sesamoid bones. The body of the metatarsal bone has three flat sides. There is free space between them. The composite surface of the bones is necessary to connect the tarsus.
The fifth tarsal bone has a difference - tuberosity. The tendons of the tibialis minor muscle are attached. The lateral and cuneiform bones are designed to connect to the base of the second and third class metatarsals.
Transverse and longitudinal arches are formed at the connection of the metatarsus with the tarsal bones. During walking and physical activity, arches act as shock absorbers and protect against destruction and injury. Regulate the background of proper blood circulation. These parts of the bone are less susceptible to injury; if the clearance decreases, consult a doctor. If treatment is not started on time, the consequences will not be comforting. The disease leads to disruption of the musculoskeletal system.
Patients experience foot problems due to the following diseases and health problems:
It is not easy to understand and determine the nature of pain in the feet on your own. You cannot eliminate pain without consulting a doctor. Contact professionals who will explain the causes of pain. To make a diagnosis, doctors send patients for x-rays and a full examination. If the metatarsal bone of the foot hurts, which doctor will help?
If pain appears after a foot injury, visit a traumatologist. You can contact a therapist who will tell you what to do, who to visit - an orthopedist, a neurologist, a surgeon, a rheumatologist.
The doctor, after determining the cause of the pain, prescribes the necessary treatment. First of all, the sore foot needs to be provided with a gentle mode of movement. For inflammation of tissues and joints, the doctor will prescribe anti-inflammatory treatment to reduce pain. For bone fractures, doctors will apply a plaster cast, and for dislocations - an elastic bandage. Doctors prescribe hormonal drugs, calcium, and vitamins for diseases of bone tissue.
If a patient has flat feet, doctors advise buying orthopedic shoes and using special insoles. Patients are sent for exercise therapy, massage, and physiotherapy. Treatment with surgical intervention is carried out for circulatory disorders in the lower extremities, chronic or progressive neuroma, and ingrown toenails.
There are folk remedies used as additional treatment to relieve foot pain. Before treatment, consult your doctor.
