Numbness in the Feet. Numbness in the feet is a loss of sensation or feeling in the feet, as a result of improper communication between the nerves and the central nervous system. Commonly foot numbness is attributed to a blood shortage in the foot. This occurs when someone is sitting cross-legged for an extended amount of time.
Common causes of tingling feet include: 1  Peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage). 2  Nerve dysfunction, such as a pinched nerve. 3  Nerve entrapment. 4  Poor blood circulation. 5  Medication (tingling could be a side effect). 6  Systemic diseases, such as hypothyroidism or multiple sclerosis. 7  Trauma or injury to a nerve, such as with a broken foot.
