A member asked:
Can foot numbness be caused by a change in physical activity?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Tarsal tunnel syndrome may be worsened by marathon running or vigourous jumping. Involves entrapment of posterior tibial nerve at medial ankle. Getting off feet may help. A good podiatrist can benefit all of this.
