Is pain in the fingers and tingle in the toes a sign of vitamin b12 defencies?

Possibly right: It is possible you are correct, but there are many causes of these symptoms. Pain related to nerve irritation normally feels like prickly or burning, and these areas are common for a metabolic cause of nerve irritation or neuropathy. Vitamin B12 deficiency is one cause, high blood sugar is a cause, heavy metals, medicine side effects and infections are also some of the causes for this.
