Waking up a numb foot can be both frustrating and uncomfortable. Here are a few quick and simple tips to get the blood flowing and sensation back:
- Move Your Toes: Start by wiggling your toes to stimulate blood circulation.
- Change Position: Stand up and walk around to relieve pressure on the nerves.
- Massage Gently: Rub your foot in circular motions to enhance blood flow.
- Elevate Your Foot: Lift your foot above heart level to reduce swelling.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink water to help maintain proper circulation.
Why It Happens?
- Poor Circulation: Sitting or standing in one position for too long.
- Nerve Compression: Pressure on nerves due to awkward positions.
