Suggest Treatment For Numbness In The Left Foot

I have had total numbness in my left foot. I was sitting on the floor and when I tried to stand my left ankle gave way this continued for several hours. My calf was very hard and I could not move my foot at all. I have a numbness on the out side of my calf and it feels like I have knots on the bottom of my foot. I did have that hip replaced 7/25/16.

Check your blood sugar level first.
