Heel spurs are another source of foot pain. These are abnormal growths of bone on the bottom of your heel. You can get them from wearing the wrong shoes or from an abnormal walk or posture, or even from activities like running. The spurs may hurt while youâre walking or standing.
Stress fractures are a common cause of pain on top of the foot. Metatarsal fractures are also a common cause. Fractures can be caused by repetitive movements, weak muscles, improper alignment of the bones in the lower extremity, arthritis, reduced bone density, and injury or trauma. Diseases such as gout, diabetes, tendonitis, and arthritis also lead to top-of-foot pain. Occasionally the nerves become traumatized when pressure is applied to them. A tight pair of shoes can cause pressure. Hormonal imbalances, such as occur during pregnancy or menopause, can also cause the top of the foot to ache.
