Ah, that’s definitely frustrating, dealing with such a persistent, burning sensation in yer feet. Seems like the cause might be more rooted in your doshic imbalance rather than something detected in standard blood tests. In Ayurveda, we often relate this fiery sensation to an excess of Pitta dosha, specifically localized in the feet where it can create this burning feeling.
Now, it seems like you already dipped your toes (pun intended) in some home treatments, so let’s steer towards some Ayurvedic options. Padabhyanga, or foot massage, is indeed a wonderful way not only to soothe the pain temporarily but with consistency, it can provide longer-term relief. Specifically, using cooling oils like coconut oil or even ghee can really help balance that aggravated Pitta. Do this massage at night which not only calms the feet but also promotes better sleep. Spend about 10-15 minutes massaging each foot, with gentle, circular movements. If ya can, follow this up with a short foot bath using lukewarm water.
As for herbal remedies, Brahmi’s a good choice due to its cooling nature. You might consider consuming Brahmi tea or capsules, which can help pacify Pitta. Another great option is Triphala - you could take it as a powder, mixed with warm water before bed; it has a mild detoxifying effect and helps regulate Agni, your digestive fire.
Diet, of course, plays a big role. Try to include more cooling foods - think about cucumber, watermelon, and leafy greens - and stay clear of too-spicy, sour, or fermented foods which can exacerbate Pitta. Make sure you’re keeping hydrated as well, with room temp or slightly cooled water.
If possible, consider consulting with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner personally, they could offer a tailored regimen which considers all the nuances of your lifestyle and constitution. It’s important to address any doshic imbalances holistically and patiently. Hope this help ya find some relief!
