Nerve compression: get examined for possible compression of the nerves that move the toe.

Floppy Pinky: It is difficult to understand the problem. First I must know if this is an actual physical problem where the toe IS 'flopping' or is it just the sensation that it is numb. Numbness can occur during certain exercises due to usage of certain muscles and tendons.
