Numbness / Heavyness in Left foot fingers

My problem is very peculiar, whenever I am sitting idle I feel heavyness in my left foot fingers ( not whole foot ). This happens if I am wearing shoes, if I take off my shoes then I don't feel that.

I feel this way if and only if I am sitting idle and wearing shoes. Apart from that if I am walking or running I don't anything different.

There is no mark or spot on my left foot.

Another thing I feel this only on my left foot fingers, my right foot is perfectly fine.

can someone please help. I am not able to wear shoes if I am sitting, I have to take it off.

Hi,

I haven't shown to any orthopedician. I guess its bony growth.

Thanks

Hello.

Have you shown the left foot to an orthopedician? Is it an overall increased size, a swelling or a bony growth? This is a bit unusual and should be investigated further.

I tried many shoes, so I don't think it is related to shoes.

But I can make out that recently my left foot size is increased little bit. Will that be a problem ??

Hello.

In the absence of any other symptoms or concerns, I would like to think of the shoes. If the shoes are not fitting appropriately, there may be this discomfort.

I guess you do not have this problem when you were the slippers.

Try changing the shoes. At the same time, rule out diabetes or any lower back problem.

Regards
