Diagnosis and Treatment
An examination by your doctor can usually reveal sensory loss in
your foot or ankle. The loss of feeling may be caused by damage
to a specific nerve, several nerves, or a sensory area in the Central
Nervous System. Depending on the cause, numbness in the foot can
be treated, and sometimes cured. Whether the cause of numbness in
your foot is mild or serious, it is always a good idea to practice
better foot health care. To

Serious causes of numb feet, such as diabetic
neuropathy and Multiple
Sclerosis are less threatening, if you can get them diagnosed
earlier. Don’t wait to get your numbness in the foot problem checked-the
sooner you know, the better.
