Toes: I have lymphadema in my legs I keep getting... - LSN
Toes
It could be anything - no one here is qualified to diagnose, so if there has been a recent change in your symptoms, please visit your medical practitioner.
Does it feel like burning or any pain in the ball of your feet ir just the toes or do you feel like you are standing on something like a pebble? Not medically trained but you could ask for ultra sound, this may not be your case but I was in my case misdiagnosed and for many months sent back home with take over the counter painkillers until by chance and persistence, a visiting/ locum doctor (I was fobbed off by my GP) thought it was something nervy and it took almost six months just to get an appointment for ultra sound after referral.
Reiterating others, please go to the GP or clinic, it could be anything at this point.
Hi I can understand what you mean I think, I get it into toes and sometimes cramping in feet. But yeah if it's different for you then worth getting checked out, you know yourself what's normal for you x
Maybe you need measuring for compression again, I say this because you may be a different size if you have worn compression for sometime as compression does change the look of your legs if you can wear them.
Incidently, I get sharp pains and pins and needles excess cramps and sometimes this leads to numbness in my feet and toes. This is all due to compression socks being too tight cutting my circulation off. When I stop wearing compression I then have to contend with water filled fat feet and ankles that ache a bit. I tend to think someone somewhere will find the answer to the lymph problem that does not involve the torturous compression stockings, socks and tights.
When my feet swell a lot, the pressure on my big right toe is really painful.
hi
I recommend to exclude vascular problem (arterial and venous ) by ultrasound duplex first
thanks
