Neuropathy: Multiple possibilities include (not limited to) morton's neuroma of the foot, neuropathy due to diabetes or vitamin b 12 deficiency, lumbar radiculopathy. Other rare and less likely conditions could be possible. Have a physician examine you and let him obtain a good history to reach to the diagnosis accurately and increase the chances of adequate treatment. Hope you feel well soon.
