What Causes Numbness In Toes & Feet?
I have noticed that for a few days now, the big toes of both my feet have become senseless around the tip. A few years back I was bed ridden with a multiple attack of poly arthritis, spondylitis and sciatica with also a frozen left shoulder for three consecutive months. I remember I had the same trouble with the toes then. I'd like to know what may be the cause this time.

Hi
Thanks for posting
Going by the description of your suffering,the most likely cause is pinched nerve because of slip disc.The other common cause diabetes needs to be ruled out.
Please visit a Orthopaedic surgeon for further evaluation and treatment.
Take care
