A member asked:
Ran an ultramarathon 3 weeks ago. my 2 big toes were numb after the race, but they are still numb. will it go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it may go away: Running the ultramarathon with the repetitive trauma to your foot could damage the nerves of your foot. When a nerve is injured it may take a while for the function to returned. Most nerve after injury will shut down for 4 weeks before healing will start
