What Causes Nerve Pain And Numbness In Foot?

I have nerve pain in my foot and my foot also goes numb when standing on it for more then 15 min. The doctor said it was slight nerve damage and should be better in a couple of months. It has almost been a year since then. What do you think is wrong with my foot?

Hello,

Drugs like gabapentin will be effective. In severe cases, steroid injection will provide long-lasting pain relief. Consult an orthopedic and he will direct you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
