[|Human|] My question is what type of doctor to see: I have low back pain and sciatica pain down the right leg, then at the same time, both my big toes are numb and pretty bad pain in the second toe on the right foot. I have had this sciatic pain down the left side too, like last week. This week it is in the right side. Now, who do I need to see, an orthopaedic surgeon or neurosurgeon?
[|AI|]  Dear Sir/ Madam, Thank you for posting your query at Chat Doctor.come suggest you to visit a superspecility hospital, where doctors work in team. You can go to either of one specialty. At first, they would advice to get investigation done like MRI, X-ray or CT Scan. Investigation will help them to understand the severity or worsening nerve damage, or a serious underlying problem. Hope this answer your query. Please feel free to revert in case you need any further information. With best wishesTehzib
