Numb: The numbness could be from a bunion pressing on the nerve to medial side of that joint area.

Cold & numb : A toe that is cold and numb is a very dangerous situation and should be evaluated immediately. A cold and numb toe is usually the result of decreased or compromised blood flow to the toe. A problem with circulation to the toe could result in loss of the toe. Please have this evaluated asap.

Do you have back : Issues? Sometimes a pinned nerve in the back can cause these symptoms. Look to see if the toe feels cold or is actually cold......
