A member asked:
I stepped on something metal and now my foot is numb and tingly, should i be concerned?

See below: This is probably just bruising and swelling on the base of the foot. However, if there was any blood after the injury, i would make sure your tetanus shot was up to date. You could go by your local urgent care clinic for a quick check up to make sure nothing more serious is going on.
