What Causes Tingling And Numbness In The Feet And Toes?

About 6 weeks ago I felt a pinching on my rt hip/ buttock. It affected how I walk at first then later even sitting, laying down, standing or any position. I went to a physical therapist and she did some compression on my lower back and it released some of the tension and pain. I am walking better some days. My concern is there is still some tingling and numbness on my rt foot and toes. I m thinking the nerve is being pinched somewhere and my concern is if there is any thing else I can do. Also, would it cause damage to my nerves being pinched for long time.

Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As per your complain you have problem of numbness and tingling sensation because of nerve compression problem.

Physiotherapy is helpful in this case.
Traction and other excercise helpful.
Consult a physician for further treatment.

Nerve decompression surgery also helpful.
Check your blood sugar level also. Diabitic neuropathy also cause this type of symptoms.
Detail history and physical examination give exact idea.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
