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.
I have noticed that for a few days now, the big toes of both my feet have become senseless around the tip. A few years back I was bed ridden with a multiple attack of poly arthritis, spondylitis and sciatica with also a frozen left shoulder for three consecutive months. I remember I had the same trouble with the toes then. I'd like to know what may be the cause this time.
