A member asked:

Wore high heels and circulation cut off in foot for at least 10 minutes..felt numb.feeling came back quickly after removing.can this cause blood clot?

Not normally : You also may be dealing with a pinched nerve. Avoid those shoes and seek an evaluation by a podiatrist is the problem persists.
