Question
i was diagnosed with spondylosis years ago after a MRI and CT scan after a car accident. the last 3 days my ankles feet and lower legs are tingly, soar and sometimes throbbing. Its only at night and i have not done any extra activity.  my job involves both sitting and standing at times.

Answer
Dear Kristina,

This Orthopedic Chicago Podiatrist located in West Loop 60661,Roscoe Village 60618, Elmhurst 60126 & Bartlett 60103 says...
Try sleeping with your legs elevated for the foot & leg swelling. At work- Try to take a few brisk steps after standing before you sit down. For the foot & leg numbness try different sleeping positions & learn back & stomach exercises-which may help lessen your symptoms( may be most important piece of advice I give you). Less weight on the feet will also produce less symptoms. If these symptoms continue or get worse-see your Board Certified Podiatrist.

Hope this helps.
Good Luck!
