Seriously how can you have pain and numbness in your feet and limbs at the same time? I have almost quit WEBMD totally. Many wasted weekends worrying about misdiagnosis by Dr. Nucky instead of waiting until my DOCTOR's appointment. The guy with the Certificate always has a better answer than I. Pain is ruining my little life. I feel for the OP and hope relief is around the corner.
I have intermittent pain and numbness in my left foot. It's Morton's neuroma. Basically a little growth on a nerve between the 4th and 5th toe. There's no treatment for it, and the cure is to surgically sever the nerve. It can be managed with good shoes and orthotics with metatarsal support, massage, and that's pretty much it.

For me it's totally manageable, plus I'm more of a barefooter which is actually helpful since it allows the toes to spread out, thus relieving the pressure on the nerve.
