What Does Numbness And Tingling On Toe Indicate?
Numbness on my left foot s second to. Hi, I m a male of 23 years old, 5 5 , and weight about 200lbs. I ve had numbness on my toe for about a month already and it s really concerning me. I don t feel any pain unless I touch to massage it, to get some blood circulation, in case that s the problem. It s not an unbearable pain and I also have tingling at touch. I also have not suffered any injury. It started after working in construction for a day. I m really concerned it might be something serious.

hi,
thank-you for providing the brief history of you.
As you have numbness and tingling along with pain on touch this could be related to the nerve pinch. As this is most of the time ignored and later stages comes with high impact. Taking an MRI of lumbar spine should provide us possible understanding by which proper exercises will be implemented to safeguard on the initial stages.
Also, you are a construction employee such spine injuries can be expected. You may have not directly impacted the spine but the stress and strain on the miscall system will lead later to other factors like numbness and tingling sensation
I will recommend you to undergo physical therapy as it will help you from the initial stages and avoid future injuries if the spine. Being ur profession demands high physical exertion making the stability of the spine in the initial stages is very important.
