Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.


I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.





Dear you may be suffering from neuropathy of leg.


The lesion may be at great toe or at radiculopathy pain.


It may be due to nerve irritation or compression or degeneration etc.


Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.


Need to consult your neurophysician he will examine and treat you accordingly.





Take care.
