What to do if i have to walk about or exercise my leg and foot goes numb. i can still feel my legbut that feeling in the leg and foot instead. what could that be?

See physician.: Could be a problem originating in back. May also be as simple as getting better foot support with shoes and orthotics. This must be evaluated to make the correct determination.
