In three of my toes on my right foot I have "altered sensation." I heard it best described by a neurologist online who equate it to feeling like your socks are bunched up. When it first started, I was constantly checking for this just that...my socks being bunched up between my toes.
Sometimes when I'm flaring it spreads to above my ankle, and it feels like my whole foot is wrapped in plastic wrap...or something like that.
At no point do I lose feeling in them. I can pass a pin prick test. If anything, I feel more than I should versus less.

It's kind of like when your toes would be waterlogged and prunny ..when I press my toes on the floor I feel it more.. I hear people talk about numbness a lot.. But it is a vague term..
