What Causes Pain And Burning Sensation In Toes?

I started having pain in 2 of my toes 6 months ago. It was only when walking but now it is all the time. It seems like a burning sensation like they got very cold although it never goes away. 2 of the toes seem to be numb on the top 1/2 or so also. I live in Florida so it s not from the cold and it is getting progressively worse.
