Question
What is the cause of numbness of toes and is there anything that will help this?
Answer
There are many causes of numb toes. There are treatments that can help once the correct diagnosis is made. Numbness is usually a symptom of an unhappy nerve. Some causes are reversible and some are not. There may be a pinched nerve in the foot or the back. Complications of diabetes can also lead to numb toes.
I encourage you to see your podiatrist for a complete examination and testing. With proper diagnosis and treatment, your toes can be happy again!
