The area where you feel the burning sensation is in the ball of the foot â medically referred to as the forefoot â under the top or heads of the metatarsal bones, the five long bones in the feet that connect to the toe bones.
Glaciers erode the land in two ways, by plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process when a glacier picks up rocks. The weight of a glacier makes it easy to break rocks and boulders in pieces.
Water dislodges, dissolves, or removes surface material in the process called erosion. Streams produce fluvial erosion, in which weathered sediment is picked up for transport, and movement to new locations. Sediments are laid down by another process, deposition.
