A member asked:
My leg went numb below the knee for several hours last night. i am 31, no major health problems. is this a cause for concern?

Certainly not normal: For one leg to go numb below the knee is not normal. Were you sitting or laying in an odd position that could explain why this happened? Do you have lower back problems? If it happens again then I would be evaluated by a doctor.
