What should I do if my left big toe is numb?

In life, our bodies often encounter some minor problems, which make us very uncomfortable, but we feel that there is no need to go to the hospital for a check-up, so we have to leave it alone, but we are tortured and uneasy. For example, sometimes we may feel numbness in the big toe of our left foot or something like that. What should we do then?

Below, let's look at a few examples

1. I participated in the school sports meeting some time ago, and recently I don’t know what’s going on. I always feel that the outside of my left big toe is sometimes slightly numb and has no feeling. But it doesn't hurt, what is the cause of this?

Hello! This phenomenon is usually related to peripheral neuropathy or nerve compression. You need to find out the cause. Long-term use of the same posture may cause numbness.

2. Patient information: Male, 17 years old

Description of the condition (onset time, main symptoms, etc.):

It's been about 2 days. The outside of my left big toe is numb and feels like there's something between them. The inside is fine. My toes don't hurt, but the feeling is bad and hasn't subsided. There's no abnormality in other parts of my body.

There has never been such a situation before

I haven't been sick, but I have a fever.

Answer: Is the outside you are referring to between your thumb and index finger? If so, it may be local nerve sensory abnormalities. Most cases will improve on their own after observation for a period of time.

If not, it may be compression of L4-5 nerves. Most of the time, there is tenderness in the lower back and lumbar disc herniation can be diagnosed. No medication is required in either of the above two situations.

The cause has been determined and the treatment has been provided, thank you!

Answer: Toe numbness is definitely related to circulation. Generally, numbness only occurs after a circulatory disorder. There are two types of numbness. One is ischemic numbness caused by circulatory disorders, and the other is nerve numbness caused by a lack of nutrition for local nerves due to circulatory disorders.

In specific situations, it is recommended that you go to a regular and authoritative hospital for examination in a timely manner, find out the cause of the disease, and take targeted measures.

From this we can know that no matter what the situation is, it is actually related to the health of our body. Sometimes minor problems may also cause major diseases. Here I would like to remind everyone that if you encounter minor problems in your daily life, do not ignore them. It is best to handle them with caution.
