A member asked:
If i have lower back pain of late as well as sometimes numbness of my right toes, being a gout sufferer, what does this all mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Various Causes: Low back pain and one-sided leg, foot or toe pain/numbness could be related to a vertebral disc issue in the spine, or piriformis (buttock) muscle spasm, both of which can produce sciatica symptoms. Additionally, low back pain and gout in a young person suggests a suboptimal diet which may also raise the risk for diabetic changes in blood vessels of the feet (as well as eyes, heart and kidneys).
