A member asked:
Can a vibration sensation (like a phantom cell phone) in foot come from sciatica?
11 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Possibly : It could come from your spine but less likely if the symptoms are only in your foot and not radiating down the leg. There are nerve entrapment syndromes in the foot itself. Consider seeing an orthopaedic foot and ankle specialist.

yes: Sciatica can cause parasthesias, that some patients describe as a vibrating sensation.
