Numb Feet: Is It MS? Or Something Else?
Don’t assume that MS is the cause of numb or tingling feet. Get this symptom checked out by your doctor.

In most people with multiple sclerosis (MS), the disease eventually leads to new or worsening neurological symptoms. Sometimes one of these new symptoms is numbness or a tingling or prickly sensation in your feet, which may be caused by MS lesions in your brain or spinal cord.

Numbness or tingling in your feet — or your hands, face, or body — can also be present early in the course of your multiple sclerosis or even before your diagnosis, according to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
