My right big toe has been going numb for a year . . .. . . now that toe nail is ready to fall off. . . . .. I severely fractured this right foot in 1978 . .. . broke all 5 metatorsels . . . .. I test positive once for diabetes .. but lost 20 lbs and then passed the test. . . . . . I used to get severve gout in this spot for years about twice a year . . . is all this related to the fracture ? What can I do to fix
