What Causes Numbness On Foot?

I cut my left ankle right below my ankle bone on the left hand side and now it is numb along the left side of my foot and i can move it to the right without pain . I immediately put hydrogen peroxide and put a gauze with medical tape. Is this normal ? Help?

Hi. Thanks for asking question.
There is no need to worry, numbness will improve when infection resolve and wound heal up. Use this antiseptic dressing.
Wish you good health.
