Numbness in Big Toe

My younger brother (19 years old) has had a numb toe for almost two weeks now.  what could it be?  What could he do to help it?

Strangly enough my father (56) is experiencing the same thing.  My brother and My father have no relation to each other.

Both of my big toes are numb at the tip? this has been going on for a few weeks. Do you have any ideas on what may be causing this? bad circulation?

did he have injury to the toe?  i would also ask if his shoes are fitting tightly.  lastly, he would need to get a biomechanical exam to see if his gait is causing increase pressure on the toe during push off of the walk cycle.
