Numb Toes

[CyclChyk]

Knotted you are a wealth of wisdom! Thank you for that! Actually, the insoles the doc "prescribed" are specifically made for me and VERY expensive. I only ever got one pair made, and I am using some form of Doc Shoals at the moment. I have been "wrapping my toes" with sports tape for the last year or so. It helps for a little bit, but at some point, it stops working.

My weight is focused on my second toe (the one by the big one). So yeh, I have "roughened" spots at that point but not "calluses" persay. And the "whip" callous as you describe are there but they are mostly a "roughened" spot as mentioned before. I obsess about how ugly my feet are so I try to keep them "babied". My left foot is developing somewhat of a hammer toe while my right has avoided that.

I had foot surgery as a child and I always blamed my right foot pain on that, but apparently it was my bone being rubbed round. When my left foot started about 2 years ago, I didn't have the surgery to blame, and that is how I discovered my problem. My toes on both feet going numb are something I have kinda gotten used to, as awful as that sounds. They say women have a higher threshold for pain. Perhaps that is why I grin and bear it. The numbness is minor in comparison.

I will DEFINATELY check out the insoles you suggest. I have been doing a little reseach on it already. I heard the green Superfeet is the way to go but I think they are mostly for runners?
