A member asked:
Wore boots (heels) for 4hr+ yesterday. one of my toes on each foot and the bottom of my feet near the toes, feels numb. never exp this before. worried?

Digital nerve : Most likely pressure against digital nerves to your toe(s).Possibly the toe 'box' in your heel is smaller than your foot is used to and pressure on the nerves results in numbness to the toes. Avoid those shoes for awhile...! The numbness will resolve spontaneously. Best of Luck!
