I've had these sensations in my big toe/part of my foot for the last few days. Stupidely just googled, as you do.. and as a result scared myself witless.
Can anyone reassure me this is not the start of something horrible...
I had an infection in my toe a while back and I don't know if coincidence, but my toe was hurting in the same place yesterday, maybe no connection but thought i'd mention it...
I also have disc degeneration in my back and suffer sciatica on and off, but in the last few days since having these strange sensations in my toe/foot I haven't really had any scaitica, although i'm having a flare up with my back pain at the moment. In the 10 years i've suffered with my back/ sciatica i've never suffered any numbness/pins and needles or shock like pain in my foot... Could it be connected? I've just read lots of other conditions this could be the start of... I know I, I know, I must stop scaring myself with google.. I will be going to the doctor tomorrow if I can get an appointment but I would appreciate any reassurance in the meantime.
