Depends: Numbness of the toes can have several causes. Have it evaluated by your podiatrist. If the numbness comes and goes, then it may be treatable. If the numbness is constant, it is more difficult and may not be something that will resolve. Dr l.

Numb toe: Numb toe can be caused by alot of things. Need to rule out things like neuropathy, nerve entrapment or maybe even a lower back disc problem. Get checked out by a podiatrist.
