Unfortunately we can't diagnose or give medical advice, so I would suggest you see either you DSN or Gp for the right kind of help.

Hi. I get numb big toes to. It is usually after standing or walking for a while. And it comes and goes. My dsn wasn't convinced and didn't really know what to do. And when I saw a podiatrist for my flat feet he said that might not be helping as it puts added pressure or something and slows the blood supply when I stand for long periods of time. Don't know if that is similar.
