See details: You have likely contused a nerve and the numbness should resolved over 2-4 weeks. If it persists or you develop any weakness, see a doctor.

You most likely: injured some very SUPERFICIAL nerve endings. They will "regenerate" (come back) in several weeks...... Hope this is helpful! Dr Z

My lt leg is not syncing with my rt leg. I walk with a slight limp. When I run my lt foots slaps the ground. There is a numbness when I touch the foot or leg. I think I have a pinched nerve. I have had a back opportunity. They fused vertebrae.
