Numb toes: causes and symptoms Numbness toes
-
Numb toes are generally a result of conditions that affect the nerves and / or blood vessels leading to the feet and toes. Numbness of the toes is often associated with tingling. Numbness and tingling in the toes is known as paresthesia of the toes. The most common cause of toe numbness is pinching of the nerves of the foot by footwear. Toe numbness can occur due to foot injuries, nerve damage (neuropathy), and decreased blood flow to the foot, such as in diabetes and peripheral vascular disease. Numbness of the foot can also be caused by irritation of nerves in the low back due to hernia, frostbite, stroke, diabetic neuropathy, beriberi, multiple sclerosis (MS), Raynaud's phenomenon and vasculitis. There is an increased risk of nerve irritation in the foot when skeletal abnormalities occur, such as with bunions.

Causes of numb toes
-
Your body contains a complex network of sensory nerves, also called afferent nerves. These are sensory nerves that carry signals from the sensory cells to the central nervous system. When nerves are compressed, damaged, or irritated, it is as if a telephone line has been cut or disrupted and messages cannot be processed properly. The result is tingling
