nikmar Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 do you smoke? if so, that could be something to do with it. My grandfather had similar due to smoking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjintx Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Are you diabetic? Could be nerve issues related to that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post uptome1946 Posted April 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 19, 2022 I had this happen to me several years ago and worried quite a bit about it as I had heard that this was a symptom of multiple sclerosis. Sometimes the lack of feeling in the sole of my left foot made me drag my foot while walking. The symptoms seemed intermittent and some days my foot felt normal. After almost a year of having these symptoms of numbness, sometimes a tingling feeling in the toes, these symptoms disappeared. I am 75 years old and I believe that too much concentration on the health of the body can easily destroy the health of the mind. The medical tests required to find the cause of this condition are not simple or inexpensive to do. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Have the same symptoms but only right toe and sole and a little knee pain. Appears to be linked to sciatic nerve and weekly massage alleviates the pain for a few days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 It could be any number of things, from a neurological problem to a problem with circulation to an issue with your spine. Is it both feet or just one? Test your circulation by pressing hard on the nail of your big toe and seeing how long it takes to turn back to normal color. It should be just 2-3 seconds. If longer, may be circulatory issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had asked in case this was a drug side effect. It is possible that your potassium levels are off due to the diuretics, and both high and low potassium levels can cause tingling and numbness in the feet. You should get a serum potassium level checked at once (any lab can do this). If it is above or below normal range go straight back to your heart doctor with the results to get your meds adjusted. If your potassium levels are normal, then it may be a neurological condition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
