A member asked:

While cycling outside of leg ankle and foot goes numb. can this be a trapped nerve? i had a hip arthoroscopy almost 3 years ago with torn labrum. osteo arthiritis was also diagnosed and had lesions due to impingement?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Anatomy: Your past history may or may not relate to this. Yes, you could periodically "pinch" either sural or plantar branch of posterior tibial nerve. This may well relate to angle of foot and ankle while cycling. A podiatrist could assess this, and perhaps design an orthotic device to correct
