Most nerve damage in your feet gets blamed on aging, tight shoes, or just bad luck. By the time most patients reach a nerve specialist, the damage has already progressed past the point where treatment is straightforward.

These five warning signs can appear years before things get serious, and most people miss every single one of them.

In this episode, I'm going to walk you through the five specific warning signs of nerve damage in your legs and feet, explain exactly why each one happens, and tell you what to do before the damage becomes permanent.

❓ QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Q: What causes burning and tingling in the feet at night?
A: Burning and tingling at night is usually a sign that the myelin sheath protecting your nerves is beginning to break down. At night, when distractions are gone, the nerve signals become impossible to ignore, but the damage is happening around the clock.

Q: Is numbness in the feet serious?
A: Yes. Numbness means the nerve damage has advanced past the burning and tingling phase to a point where the nerve fibers may be dying. Damage at this stage can become irreversible, and patients face a significantly higher risk of falls and injuries they cannot feel happening.

Q: What is tarsal tunnel syndrome?
A: Tarsal tunnel syndrome is compression of the tibial nerve at the inside of the ankle. It produces sudden electrical jolts or sharp pain with each step, is significantly more common than most doctors currently recognize, and is frequently misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis.
