Just stumbled across this on B5 deficiency.

Deficiency of vitamin B5

With Vitamin B5 in short supply symptoms like fatigue, headaches,

nausea, tingling in the hands, depression, personality changes and

cardiac instability have been reported.

Frequent infection, fatigue, abdominal pains, sleep disturbances and

neurological disorders including numbness, paresthesia (abnormal

sensation such as " burning feet " syndrome), muscle weakness and

cramps are also possible indications that this nutrient is in short

supply.

Biochemical changes include increased insulin sensitivity, lowered

blood cholesterol, decreased serum potassium, and failure of

adrenocorticotropin to induce eosinopenia.

Dosage

Hope this helps

I had something like it when I was a teen ... it felt like I was walking

on broken glass. Now THAT one was probably because I was

running in thin-soled shoes on concrete, and got an inflammation

on the fascia. My daughter got something similar, but that

one was due to a growth spurt, and the doctor prescribed

stretching exercises (which worked).

However, in the gluten intolerance group people get a sort

of pain in the foot as a side effect ... maybe from vitamin

deficiencies. I think taking B vitamins and doing stretching

isn't a bad first attack ... I'll guess the doc will prescribe

anti-inflammatories (which can work well too, tho it's

good to remember that foods like blueberries are darn good

anti-inflammatories).

If you're not sure it's not athlete's foot, try applying rubbing

alcohol or coconut oil. Both work for us for the occasional bout of

athlete's foot. Also scrub the bathtub/shower and wash the bathmats.

My dh washes his (running) shoes practically every time he wears

them, then sets them out in the sun to dry.

Try a Google search on the web and on their forums on buring soles of

feet and b vitamin deficiency.
