Brief Answer: Seen in patients with compression of nerve Detailed Answer: Hello again, I apologies if my last answer was confusion. I shall try and clarify them now. As you described your pattern of numbness on 2nd third and forth toes on both feet. The toes on the left foot are numb and itchy and swollen one toe has a bump on it is seen in patients with compression of nerve due to disc bulge in spine. Therefore MRI spine is a useful investigation to exclude this possibility. If spine is normal then another possibility of peripheral neuropathy leading to numbness in your toes. There can be associated infection leading to swelling and bump. Routine blood investigation will help to rule out infection. Hope this answers your query.
