What are the permanent effects of foot falling asleep a lot?

Paresthesias: This sounds like paresthesias. To answer this question, a reason as to why this is occurring is critical. It may be early signs of neuropathy, a degenerative nerve condition. It may also arise out of compression of spinal nerves. Get a neurologic assessment first.
