My toe is numb.
O_O;;; The bottom of my left pinky toe has gone numb, I can feel pain, but not much. It started two days ago. It’s not purple nor cold suggesting circulation issues, so I think I can rule out my weight as a factor behind it. I’m 250.
Any ideas? No trauma to it. No injuries.

U seriously need to go see a doctor. Unless anyone here is a doctor, that is. But I still think it should be physically examined by a doctor… =//
I’m hopefully going tomorrow. I just wanted more ideas.
Have you cahnged footwear recently or started to change your walking habits?
umm actually…
I got a new pair of sandles… that feel odd to wear. But would that do this? O_O;;; If so, would not wearing them help?
I believe your sandals are to blame. They are probably putting pressure on your toe or a nerve that runs into your toe and you don’t even realise it. I did a little nerve damage to the left side of my left foot the same way. It was because of a pair of sandals that didn’t fit me properly.
I recommend you stop wearing them and hope the damage reverses itself. You can still see a doctor, just in case it’s something else.
It happened to me once when I changed job and had new footwear and did a lot of walking. In England Dr’s sometimes refer to it as Policeman’s toe because they had it a lot on the old days.
I got it in one day, both my big toes went numb at the ends but didn’t hurt or feel cold. It never got better.
I’d still see the Dr as I am not one.
I’m going to see the doc, and I sure hope it gets better. I want my toe back.
Mine never got better (completely) either. I don’t have any numbness or anything but the nerve is very sensitive. If I wear a shoe that puts pressure on it, it feels a lot like hitting the “funny bone” in your elbow. Or if I’m bare footed and step on it wrong, it feels the same way.
It’s not a huge deal, I just have to be careful what shoes I wear and how I walk.
Hopefully yours will get better. See the doc like you have planned, he may have an intervention for you.
I do hope. I hope it’s the sandals. I’ll never touch THOSE again, no sir.
Thanks for all this.
O_O;;; to anyone who really looks at this… I burntttttttttt them. and my toe is fine now.
that is good. i hit my funny bone right on my elbow!! it really hurt. but then the next day when i woke up me big toe and pinky toe on my left foot were numb at the top. i don’t know what to do.
i think your toe should be destroyed by a nuclear testing plant
i totally agree with that last person. DESTROY IT. NOW.
I’m not sure if you’d remembeer, being a long time ago and whatever
but can you remember how long it took for your toe to feel normal again?
It’s happeend to me and it’s already been4, almost 5 days and im getting quite worried…
thanks!
ahh i hit my funny bone really hard nd it shot pain down my arm and it felt really warm and my funny bone still really hurts.
help
mine also went numb, i am 15 years old and i recently started skateboarding and both my big toes are numb, i am really scared that it i something serious i dont know what to do
I’m 14 and my right big toe feels a little numb at the bottom and won’t go away. I’ve been wearing some new socks lately but that’s it.
Same for me as well as i had been wearing leather shoes for too long and my numbness had been there for like more then 2 month already but had yet to see a doctor. I’m worried though.
My big toes on the ends are numb but do not hutr they have been that way for over a year.
