A member asked:

Can a knee brace cause tingling in that foot?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: If you are causing too much pressure around the knee, you can push on the sensory nerves that give you sensation around your foot. Usually it is pressure on the outside of the knee near your fibular head where your superficial peroneal nerve is located.
