Dorsal compression syndrome occurs when the foot flattens out too much. The foot is an arch. When an arch collapses, the arch gets longer on the bottom and shorter on the top. So as the foot flattens, the arch gets shorter on top of the foot leading to pressure between the bones. This increased pressure is what causes the top of your foot to hurt. It can also be caused due to restriction of movement at the ankle joint.
