R foot is always going numb. when ever i sit down crossed legged/when they're on soft surfaces. never left. started happening week ago. never before ?

See ortho: It appears that a nerve at the right foot is compressed when you cross your leg or walk on soft surfaces. Are you wearing shoes with good arch support? If yes, you may need to consult an orthopedist or podiatrist
