Possibly weakness in my toes, pain in arm, bad anxiety over ALS fears

I don't really know how to describe it but the toes on one of my foot feel very different. When I walk it feels like my toes are curled up, however it does not look like they actually are curled. When I try to flex or move my toes on that foot I notice they don't move as smoothly or as well as my other foot.

I am unsure about weakness as I can still move my toes as high and as wide as my other okay foot, just not really as fast or well. 

I can stand on my toes on both feet and even stand on my toes using only one leg, even my affected leg, which also makes me question if it is weakness or something else.

I've also noticed 2 fingers (pinky and ring) on my right hand are also not as smooth or precise in their movements when typing.

I am sorry I did not know what to make of this, I have just had very bad anxiety regarding ALS.

I've had bad pains in my arm and leg for a few months now however doctors do not think it is anything serious.

My right hand also feels stiff and painful at times.

My pain at times feels like it could be something else too, like MS, but it could also be more anxiety.

Thanks for any input.
