A member asked:
I wore high heels for a long period of time and now my two toes on my left foot are somewhat numb. it's been 5 days so far.what could the problem be?

Unclear: Despite the use of the shoes for a long time does not rule out either a pressure neuropathy or trauma. It may take longer and are you continuing to wear the high heels? You may want to stop using them for an extended period of time. If does not result you may want to consult a podiatrist. This may take a while to resolve.
