Specialist-level assessment

You deserve a clear answer, not more guessing.

At The Hub Glasgow, podiatry, physiotherapy, diagnostics and rehabilitation sit together. That means we can look at the problem properly and guide you to the right next step.

Why this matters

From everyday foot care to more complex pain.

The Hub Glasgow brings podiatry, MSK assessment, in-house diagnostic ultrasound, gait thinking and rehabilitation together. That is useful when symptoms are painful, recurring, unclear or stopping you from walking, running, training or working comfortably.

What it can feel like

Numbness may affect one toe, several toes or the ball of the foot, and it can be linked with shoes, nerve irritation or wider health factors.

Common causes

  • Footwear compression
  • Nerve irritation
  • Forefoot pressure
  • Back or leg-related symptoms
  • Circulation or medical factors

How we assess it

Assessment may include checking the painful area, skin and nails, joint movement, strength, walking pattern, footwear, pressure points and whether gait analysis, diagnostic ultrasound or onward referral would be useful.

Treatment options

  • Neurological and circulation screening
  • Footwear review
  • Pressure assessment
  • Referral guidance when needed
  • Podiatry or physiotherapy planning

Questions people often ask

When should I get numb toes checked?

Book an assessment if symptoms are getting worse, changing how you walk, stopping activity, recurring after rest or making normal shoes uncomfortable.

Will I need orthotics or imaging?

Not always. Orthotics, imaging or shockwave are only useful for certain problems. The first job is to identify the likely source of pain and the load or pressure keeping it irritated.
