What Causes Numbness In Toes While Walking?
Hi, I am a 62 year old female, white, and my smallest two toes on my left foot are turning in towards my other toes. Plus they are numb when I walk a lot. I am in good health with no other symptoms. Should I go to a podiatrist locally or is this just an age thing?

Hello,
It may be due to peripheral neuropathy.
For that you may require complete hemogram, b12 levels, blood sugar levels after physician consultation.
Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.
You may require tablet pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.
Take balanced diet.
Use cushioned shoes.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
