What Causes Tingling Sensation In Outer Right Big Toe?
Hi I ve been experiencing some tingling / numbness in my outer right big toe. What could be the problem as I am not diabetic? I suspect either the epidural I took months back when I delivered or the bad callouse I have. Would love an answer to my question thank u

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Calluses usually do not cause symptoms.
However, if friction is extreme, calluses may become thick and irritated, which causes a mild burning sensation, or sometimes a pain like that caused by damage to the nerves in the foot.
I suggest using an anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the inflammation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
