I fell asleep on a bus with a heavy box on my lap for five hours of the six hour ride. my legs felt numb after leaving and my left leg has pain and a tingling feeling that has lasted multiple days. is it possible i suffered permanent leg damage?

I answered your question previously. If that incidence really causes those symptoms, there will not be any irreversible damage. If symptoms persist, you need to see your doctor for a different etiology.
