Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have tingling sensation and numbness in legs and feet . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like abnormal levels of vitamin B12 or other vitamins, potassium, calcium, or sodium , poor blood supply to the affected area , herniated disk in your spine , pressure on your nerves diabetes or transient ischemic attack . If condition doesn't get well then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination and treatment . If your are experiencing dizziness , shortness of breath or weakness along with numbness and tingling in legs then your should go to emergency . I would suggest you to put your legs and feet in hot water tun with epsom salt for 15 minutes daily , drink plenty if water , eat healthy and do light exercise .
