Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Partial Numbness And Soreness In Big Toes?
I think that I have two problems... One: I have had partial numbness and soreness in my big toes and somewhat in the second and third toes for about two years. This has been accompanied by pain in the heels. Two: About two months ago I took a long walk while on vacation in Phoenix. (The warm weather was so welcome) Pain suddenly developed in the top of my left foot which has not gone away. I had it x-rayed thinking that I had broken some bone. No fracture showed up but the doctor said there was some slight arthritis. Can this be the cause of this sudden onset of pain? And could these two issues be interrelated? Thank you so much for your care and consideration.
