Specializes in Podiatry

Check right shoe.: With no health problems and only affecting the right foot toes, a nerve in the area of the ankle or lower leg has been irritated and is allowing inconsistent conduction. Give it it a couple of days to see if is stops. If no,t then you may have to consult with a specialist.
