Numbness in the legs and feet due to heart disease, if not particularly severe, can initially be treated with medications under a doctor's guidance, such as isosorbide mononitrate tablets, atorvastatin calcium tablets, enteric-coated aspirin tablets, etc. However, if the condition is more serious and medication treatment is not particularly effective, interventions such as stent placement or surgery may be considered.
