You can have metatarsal failures, neuromas, compression,
gout, pseudogout, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, etc .
Pain that gets worse with movement, typically is joint/ligament pain.
Here is a link to foot pain:

I would really stop the bike exercise for now. I found that
biking made my feet worse. A recumbant was a bit easier,
but 15min on one was my maximum before foot pain started. |
I was been reading the link about the feet pain....the closest condition that I could think of would be metatarsalgia or neuromas but more on neuromas. According to the topic on neuromas:
The pain is typically is the worst with standing and walking and relieved by rest. Some will complain of deep achy pain, others complain of a constant burning. There can be radiating pain, electrical pain or numbness. Many people will describe the feeling of their sock bunched up under their foot or feeling of walking on a lump or a ball. A "twang" feeling, like a guitar string, is another common complaint.
I have all of the above symptoms except for the "sock bunched up under the feet". I wonder if neuromas sensation can go up the legs and be be symmetrical.
When you had the nerve compression due to hypothyroidism, was it on both feet or just on one foot? Did your pain went up your leg or was it limited to your foot (or feet)?
Thank you Mrs.D for your patience
