Brief Answer:
Reports are almost normal.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen the attached reports. The X-ray is of heel and not the toe. The X-ray is normal. The pain in the toes can be due to prolonged standing or high arches.
If there is a pain in the heel then it can be due to inflammation of the plantar fascia that usually subsides after mild pain killers and a foot massage.
The MRI of the spinal cord shows only mild disc bulge with no nerve compression. This is not likely to be related to the change in sensation in the thighs. The decreased sensation can be related to vitamin B 12 deficiency. You can get the proper supplements prescribed after getting the levels evaluated.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
