Very often pain in the forefoot is caused by a pinching of the nerve while standing. This often causes a stabbing pain when walking. Very often this is the result of a different position and dynamics of the
the sole. With these complaints it is often necessary to correct and support the foot to counteract the nerve compression.
You can make an appointment with a podiatrist in your area to see if podiatric soles can offer solace.
