A member asked:

What is the definition or description of: numbness in feet?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Numbness by: definition is lack of feeling, so numbness in the feet would be no feeling, this can be localized to one part or can be the entire foot. This is different than the burning and tingling you see in parathesia. Often you see numbness after surgery along the scar or in diabetes or other causes of neuropathy which usually start as burning or tingling but can progress to complete numbness.
