Hello, I have studied your case. You may have spinal canal stenosis which leads to compression of spinal cord which later on supply lower limb [leg]. Due to compression of this nerve root there is tingling numbness in your foot and pain associated with it. Another differential is mortars neuralgia in which there is neuroma formation between webspace of toes. For these symptoms analgesic and neurotrophic medication can be started. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level, and uric acid level Hope this answers your query.
