Stabbing pain in the right toe spreading

Question

Asked for Female, 36 Years

This started with a mild pain on my big toe of right foot 2 weeks back. The pain was bearable initially but since some days it's unbearable to the point where I can't lie down or sleep or sit even. The pain has spread to other toes of both the feet now. And the sole pains too now. The rheumatologist said my blood reports were clear. The pain is constant . The rheumatologist gave me a steroid for 4 days which isn't working on the fourth day also. I have pcos, high cholesterol levels and on statins since 2 years. My legs feel weaker than my upper body and I get current and pins and needles like pain on foot. Should I visit a neurologist or a podiatrist?
