Menopause & Foot Pain: The Connection You Didn’t Expect 👣💫
Hot flushes, mood changes… and foot pain? Yes — hormonal changes during menopause can affect your feet, too.
🔍 Common menopause-related foot symptoms include:
• Burning or tingling sensations
• Biomechanical changes in the foot due to hormonal impacts on ligaments and tendons
• Heel pain or plantar fasciitis
• Dry, cracked skin
• Joint stiffness or aching in toes, ankles, or arches
These changes are often linked to declining estrogen levels, which can affect collagen, circulation, and joint support — all of which impact how your feet feel and function.
👩⚕️ That’s where our team of podiatrists can help.
