Can psoriasis make your toes curl over and become numb?
Psoriasis itself doesn't typically cause toes to curl over or become numb. However, if you have psoriatic arthritis (PsA), which affects about a third of people with psoriasis, you may experience joint and tendon problems that could contribute to these symptoms.
What PsA can cause in your feet:
* Dactylitis (sausage-like swelling of toes)
* Enthesitis (inflammation where tendons attach to bone, especially in the Achilles tendon and sole)
* Joint pain and stiffness
* General swelling and tenderness
These inflammatory conditions can affect mobility and cause significant discomfort, though curling toes and numbness aren't typical presentations.
What you should do:
If you're experiencing toes curling over or numbness, it's important to speak with your doctor or dermatologist. These symptoms could indicate nerve involvement or other issues that need proper evaluation. Your healthcare provider can determine whether these symptoms are related to psoriatic arthritis or if something else is causing them.
Early treatment of PsA can help prevent joint damage and improve mobility issues.
