See doctor...: How long were you sitting in that position? You need to sit in a chair and keep your foot dangling. Then, keep moving your foot. If this doesn't improve the numbness, see a doctor ASAP. If this helps, then try walking until your symptoms resolve. If your symptoms don't resolve, see doctor ASAP. Is your foot numb or pins and needles? Either way, see a doctor ASAP if symptoms don't resolve.
