Not only do you lose sensation, but the numbness can also be a symptom of something far more serious. • Although numbness in the feet is usually temporary, it can point towards a chronic condition behind the scenes, such as diabetes. How Do You Spot Numbness in Your Foot? • The most obvious symptom of numbness in the feet is losing sensation in them. They are highly sensitive, and they will become less so due to the problem. • This, in turn, will affect your sense of balance and will begin to impede your daily life. • Beyond that, you may also feel some other abnormal sensations in your feet, which include: • Tingling in some parts of the feet without any contact. • A prickling sensation. • A feeling that your feet are being pushed at by a needle. • Weakness in the feet. • Pointing these additional symptoms out can help your doctor diagnose numbness in your feet. What Causes the Numbness? • The numbness is caused by abnormalities in the nervous system. The nerves may be damaged, blocked, or affected by an infection. They may also be compressed by your muscles. • However, if the numbness is not temporary but chronic, it may be caused by an underlying medical condition, such as: • A herniated disk. • Chronic alcohol abuse. • Diabetes. • Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. • Frostbite. • Lyme disease. • Guillain-Barre syndrome. • Multiple sclerosis. • Morton’s neuroma. • Sciatica. • Peripheral vascular disease. • Peripheral arterial disease. • Injury to the spinal cord. • Shingles. • Inflammation of the blood vessels.
