Q: leg and foot pain when I lie down in the afternoon that is so bad I can't be still.

I have to be moving during the day to deal with the leg and feet pain. My feet has patches on the sides and soles and the skin is peeling. They don't itch or burn. Fungal creams don't help.
The left hip is excruciating and my leg on the left goes numb down to my toes.Help please!
