For the last five days, I have had a cold and numb right foot, mostly in my right big toe. My feet feel cold almost all the time while sitting, and I have a sore on the top of my foot that isn't healing and is painful to touch. I have no health insurance and work for myself. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had a heart attack 4 years ago and have 2 stents. I am taking several medications including Plavix, TRITACE, Concor, Crestor, Aspirin Protect, and Cipralex. My blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol levels are within acceptable ranges. My prostate is slightly enlarged, and I was prescribed Xatral XL and OMNIC OCAS, but I stopped taking them due to dizziness and headaches. Are there any natural remedies like saw palmetto or pygeum that could help with my prostate symptoms without interfering with my current medications?
