How is acid intake related to pain?

Question: If there is a pain in your foot how is that related to acid intake.

Answers:
i think you might be vaguely referring to gout? Possibly?

If so, then uric acid, a byproduct of purine metabolism in your body is over produced, and salt crystals of it deposit themselves around the body, most commonly in joint spaces, and most commonly in the toes. It causes inflammation and pain, and is fairly common. The treatment is usually a drug called allopurinol, and any doctor can give it to you.

I think that answers your question, but be more specific next time.
