nerve pain in left big toe and foot

(2 discussions)

For approximately 3 months, I have experienced a burning nerve pain in my left big toe that shoots up my foot and just above my ankle.
I cross my legs a lot at work and I walk approximately 6-8 miles per week in good supportive tennis shoes.
If I am on my knees, resting my body on my legs, and then stand up, I experience severe shooting nerve pain in my left foot and big toe.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? What I can do to relieve it?
Thank you for your assistance.

    This might indicate a pinched nerve. You might want to get this seen by a podiatrist. Good luck. Vivian A DPM
