A member asked:
I have ledderhose desease, does it cause tingling up to the middle of your calf, like it is asleep, all the time?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Plantar fascial fibromatosis, also known as ledderhose's disease, is a relatively uncommon non-malignant thickening of the feet's deep connective tissue, or fascia. Plantar fibromatosis is most frequently present on the medial border of the sole, near the highest point of the arch. The lump is usually painless and the only pain experienced is when the nodule rubs on the shoe or floor.
