I have a portion of big toe that is numb and the next toe is also numb and will also burn, like it's been scraped or something but there is no wound. The toes are not discolored and I don't have diabetes. I went to my podiatrist and he thinks it's a cyst on the top of my foot. However, I don't feel or see a lump. I have had cysts on my wrist and there was a definite lump there. So, I am wondering if the pain is truly from a cyst. Wearing tennis shoes seems to make it worse even with different lacing techniques but with my slip on shoes the pain isn't as bad but the toes are still numb. The numbness has been there for about 3 months.
