Numbness In Feet, Cold Feet. Have Asthma, On Symbicort. All Tests Normal. Any Ideas?

About 6 months ago both of my feet started to go numb. My feet also at times feel very cold, especially when I'm taking a warm shower and this is something new. I'm 47 years old and I saw my doctor and he ran a full physical and everything came back as normal. I'm asthmatic and I take Symbicort, 2 puffs 2 times a day. Any idea what may be happening to me?

Hello.For the symptoms that you have a possible diagnosis is arterial vascular problem.This occurs when the arteries that supply the feet suffer blockages or narrowing.You must go to a Specialist in Vascular Surgery to be explored and request adittional tests.If in addition to the symptoms you have, you had your foot extreme pallor,severe pain and tingling, you should go to an Emergency Service.
I wish you good health.
