yep! Since beginning this meno journey Ive had ingrown toenails, a torn perineal tendon and planter fasciitis, ankle swelling.
At first I didn't make the connection...my podiatrist did. But of course as a woman she knew it was as related to hormonal fluctuations as are my sudden allergies and digestive issues. Male docs say it's just aging, but yes of course it is! The way WOMEN'S body age, hormonally!! So yeah, add that to your list, hon.

I'm dealing with a tear now-- actually 2 tears... Don't know how I did this!!! Could've been torn for awhile and finally just gave in. Did you have surgery for yours? I'm doing everything I can to get it healed.. mainly elevate and ice.. I pray that it gets better because we all need out feet!!

Nope, no surgery...a boot for 3 straight months! I teach 5th grade so i had to wear the boot during the day and do a series of massages and stretches at night. It healed itself.

Holy cow!!! 3 months?? BUT hey, it healed itself so that is great!! I take many supplements already but I bought some collagen AND the turmeric/cucumin to see if heals faster.. : ) Thanks for giving me hope..

Burning feet (used to be just left now in both) for a few years. It also coincides with other peri symptoms.

thanks everyone, I am relieved that its not just me !! everyday Ihave a new pain and it scares me . I google some things but that jst makes me feel worse bcuz I start thinking that I have every disease associated with joint pain. I am going to see a Rheumatologist to find out if its RA.I'm praying that it will just be menopause related.
Ihope we all start feeling better so we can enjoy getting older.God bless 😃

I've had the bottoms of my feet ache here and there.. It's not from wearing shoes or walking all day either because many times I've been off my feet and it still feels odd.. Sometimes in the morning. I take many vitamins and supp too... Joys of hormones I guess

Hello Grace, yes we were just discussing this yesterday. Terrible problems with the big toe, sometimes feels like someone stabbing it with an ice pick. Other times tingling and numbness. And the foot pain is bad. My foot doctor told me that I have cystic changes in my feet, whatever that means. also if I were myalgia and she said that that is worse for the feed and that I had unusually bad arthritis for my age. If you have planters fasciitis it’s my believe it gets much worse during perimenopause and menopause. You also can get what I think is called plantar fibroids and you can have them surgically removed but they more than likely come back. if you have planters fasciitis they have inserts specifically for that, I got some at TJ Maxx the other day and they are terrific. for some reason the foot pain seems worse at night, is it worse for you at night in bed. are you taking supplements, High quality supplements really help.

Grace, i’ve taken Tumeric for a long time, but I quit because it really didn’t seem like it did nothing. Then my pharmacist explained to me today, when I was getting supplements at his pharmacy, he makes them, that you have to take her Curcumin, curcumin is what decreases the pain. He said they have to be taken together:)

can I buy them together or do they sell it separately? the one i take now is just turmeric.

I think it’s sold in one bottle, it’s Tumeric with curcumim I think, check with your pharmacist 😉

thanks Lisa,!I'll try that.

Yes. it's sold in bottle.. I just bought some the other day to see if it helps with tendon issues. The lady told me it's good together-- turmeric and curcumin and also mine came with black pepper too.. The black pepper and turmeric increases the absorption of curcumin.

Be sure to take tumeric and pepper with a fat so your body can absorb it. I put mine in natural peanut butter with a touch of honey and have a couple of spoonfuls a day.
