Detailed Answer:
Hi Bernel1,
I understand your concern.
Your case:
- 77 years old male
- symptoms: numbness in both feet toe areas and occasional leg lesions
It would be great if you could upload any photo of your leg/feet and related lesions.
From what you are describing, it is a case of possible:
- neuropathy
- chronic infection of the feet/toe areas
I'd recommend to measure your blood sugar levels, check the status of your vertebral spine and get a good neurological examination.
Looking forward to have the requested photo and information in.
