A member asked:
Couple months ago i had fractured third toe on right foot. i am now feeling a prickly sensation when i walk. i am thinking it is that toe but not sure. what is causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Healing from the fracture could have wrapped around a nerve with scar tissue causing unusual sensation. Ultrasound and message or cortisone injection into scar tissue as a last resort.
