Members described severe foot pain as a common and debilitating symptom of fibromyalgia, often feeling like walking on rocks or pebbles, with many experiencing the worst pain first thing in the morning or after prolonged standing. Several members shared strategies that have brought relief, including Epsom salt soaks, supportive footwear like Adidas slides with acupressure nubs, Dr. Scholl's heel supports for plantar fasciitis, and dietary changes such as cutting out starches. A recurring theme was the frustration of chronic stiffness, tenderness, and the inability to wear cute shoes, paired with practical advice to see a foot specialist who can diagnose related conditions like tendonitis or plantar fasciitis.
