I've had a numb foot for 3 days now! should i go to the doctors?

Yes...: Neuropathy can be due to nerve damage due to trauma, certain vitamin deficiencies, alcohol consumption, side effects of certain medications, or due to certain medical conditions such as diabetes. Have it evaluated and appropriately treated.
