Neuropathy: Need to find the cause which could be localized or distant (in the back). It is possible an emg/ncv done by neurologist can be helpful in differentiating the etiology.

A few things: It might be due to a nerve impingement such as a neuroma or tarsal tunnel, neuropathy from an underlying medical condition (thyroid, circulation, diabetic issues), pain from arthritis or part of raynauds. See a foot specialist to have this sorted out.
