Pain in the feet that comes and goes, I would think would be pointing to a compressive issue (say in the back). Arthritis, activity level, position etc being triggers. Also if your PN is only confined to the feet and does not involve hands or other skin areas, that points to a specific trigger also like the back. People who have spinal surgeries often get pain in the feet afterwards during recovery.

Other types of foot pain from PN that is genetic, toxin or drug induced or metabolic like thyroid and diabetes or autoimmune, does not go away with periods of pain free times as likely.
