        Some medications may cause neuropathy, and should be reported to your doctor.  If you have added new medications, this may be good for your Dr. to know.

          Poor blood circulation or a pinched nerve. Best to see a doctor to be sure. I don't want to scare you but it could be a sign of a heart problem too.
