What Causes Tingling Feeling In Top Of The Foot?

I have a shooting tinkle feeling in top of my foot when it is barely touched. Thinking related to nerve. Today hit corner of chair on back of lower leg and feeling shot through top of foot. Can t push down on foot without the feeling shooting through. Should I be putting ice or heat on it?

It could be injury to a nerve during the trauma. Apply hot packs to the painful region. Keep the limb elevated. Take pain killers. Consult your Orthopaedic surgeon if the problem persists beyond a couple of days.
