Re: Big V's toes

Some possible causes:
pinched nerve
poor circulation caused by: (a) cold) (b) tight shoes/socks (c) diabetes? (d) smoking (e) interactive combination of the above.
The lingering numbness sounds a bit like mild frostbite (which I have never had).

My best guess is the combination of cold and perhaps tight socks caused lessened blood flow which may have caused localised nerve damage. I don't know if they'll recover on their own.

How are they going?
