Hi,
Numbness is a lack of sensation in some particular area of the body. There are many causes of numbness of legs and feet like nerve compression, vitamins and minerals deficiency, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy, PVD, Neuralgia, diabetic neuropathy, spinal stenosis, slipped disk, circulatory disorder, osteomalacia, leprosy, cervical and lumbar spondylosis, intracerebral hemorrhage, stroke, brain aneurysm, multiple sclerosis, anemia, hypoparathyroidism, malignant hypertension and so on. For the relief you can take warm compress which will to increase blood circulation and will relax the muscles and nerves.
You can do massage to get rid of numbness. Do regular exercises and yoga to improve the mobility. Take one table spoon epsom salt in a tub filled with warm water and put your hand and feet in it for 10 to 15 mins.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
