Answers:
I have MS with numbness and tingling!. One of the characteristics of MS numbness and tingling is that it does not come and go like yours do!. The neurologists I've had will not diagnose any symptoms I might have as MS unless they have been constant over a period of 24 hours!.

I still have some numbness in my face from my first attack 5 years ago!. I've had two numbess and tingling attacks since then (one from the waist down and one in my right arm) and both times they were constant and lasted from 2 weeks - 2 months!.

It sounds like you might have a pinched nerve or perhaps you have a habit of sitting or standing in a certain position that puts pressure on the bottom of your foot, making it numb!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have had multiple sclerosis for twenty years!. Just because you have tingling and some numbness does not mean you have MS!. There are any number of diseases, conditions and just plain minor problems that could be causing your symptoms!. I know you are looking to compare yourself to someone who has the disease but no two people who have MS experience the disease in the same way!. The symptoms I have can last anywhere from a couple of seconds to years on end!. Take a deep breath!. Relax and stop thinking the worst!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's doubtful you have MS!. You are a little young and there are other symptoms!. Your numbness/tingling is more likely caused by something else and not nearly as devastating as MS!. Perhaps you have a pinched nerve!? Maybe you injured yourself playing!? Your shoes may be the culprit!? There are numerous possibilities!. Tell your parents and see your doctor if it gets worse or happens more often!. Get a new pair of shoes!. Don't self-diagnose, you'll make yourself crazy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
