[|Human|] After sitting for a long time in my tight Capri jeans my feet went really numb. Next morning I woke up with a sensation in my soles like after a frost bite. Then the numbness moved up my calves. The feeling of tightness is strong under my knee on back side. I don t have any pain I m my back neither my legs. Both legs are affected. It has been three weeks already and symptoms are about the same ... I think that I really compressed some nerves in my legs. How long can it last?
[|AI|]  Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of you. Now as the numbness hasn't gone for a long and all started by use of leggings, it can be due to two factors for which am assessment is needed. The first can be compression of vascular system as due to which the blood supply gets restricted and the numbness occurs. But since you didn't mention of swelling this could be a less possibility. The second factor could be a strain in muscles which must have lead to nerve pinch and the symptoms arise. And you do have mentioned numbness which is gradually increased and not gone for 3 weeks. Post thorough neuromuscular assessment the exercises will be implemented to release the muscle strain and improve the strength in the muscles. Also, trying the McKenzie maneuver which you can find on net give you release of numbness symptom that it will be related to spine. As post use of leggings the muscle do not have freedom of movement and can lead to spine problems. Which is common injuries we find in our clinical experience nowadays. As exercise can help regain the strength and flexibility later stages you may not face similar problems. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
