How to treat numbness and stiffness in both legs and feet

　　The treatment for numbness and stiffness in both legs and feet depends on the underlying condition. Numbness in the lower limbs is generally caused by poor posture, lumbar spine disorders, intracranial tumors, or other factors, and can be managed under a doctor's guidance through conservative treatments, oral medications, and other methods.

　　1. Poor Posture

　　Prolonged standing or squatting can impair blood circulation in the feet and legs, leading to numbness and stiffness, typically due to compression of nerves in the feet and legs. No special treatment is required; symptoms usually improve after sitting down and resting for a while.

　　2. Lumbar Spine Disorders

　　In severe cases such as lumbar disc herniation, numbness and stiffness in both legs and feet may occur due to compression of nerves that control the lower limbs. Under medical supervision, treatment may include oral medications such as ibuprofen sustained-release capsules and Shujin capsules.

　　3. Intracranial Tumors

　　If a tumor within the skull compresses the central nervous system, it can affect the nerves in the lower limbs, causing numbness in the legs and feet. Under a doctor’s guidance, treatment may involve oral administration of mecobalamin tablets, vitamin B12, and similar medications.

　　In addition, leg and foot numbness may also be caused by diabetes. It is important to seek timely medical evaluation at a hospital and receive appropriate treatment based on the underlying cause.
