Second toe of right foot has been numb for 5 months. only on the top between the nail and where the toe meets foot. that toe is longer than the others. i used to have on-off pain in that area. no redness/swelling. i walk 6 miles/day. ideas?

Morton toe: Above situation may be due to a local nerve compression. Would suggest seeing a podiatrist that can further evaluate and come up with recommendations consistent with your foot’s architecture and functional challenges.
