Why do your feet feel like you have something tight on them?

Answer 1

If your feet are feeling like there is something tight on them (which is not the same as saying the skin around your feet feels tight), it is likely that 1 of three things could be occuring: 1) You have edema, or swelling, in the area which is causing constriction on the blood vessels, and thus causes a tingling sensation as blood flow is being reduced. This can be caused by a variety of things, but you'd likely notice the swelling because your shoes would be tight. 2) For some other reason, blood flow is being restricted to the feet. 3) There are also some neurological causes/maladies that can cause this sensation. You are probably, in any case, experiencing feelings of your foot or feet "falling asleep" and possibly some occasional pain. I would recommend that, unless the answer is #1, you need to get checked out. If your feet ARE just swollen, try elevating them and drinking something sugar-free with lemon in it (lemon is a natural and safe diuretic, sugar can cause water-retention).

Answer 2

I would love to answer your question however i happened upon this page in search of answers myself.. my left foot has a sensation mostly first thing in the morning, as if it were sewn together.. i know that sounds a strange description but that is exactly as it feels.. i am a bit concerned about it and wondered if anyone else were experiencing similar sensations (not particularly painful) or if by any chance anyone had any possible answers/diagnoses? any help would be appreciated hence i am am supplying my email address - lockorc@Yahoo.com
