probably since you have been off it so long your foot isn't used to to feeling pressure on it even if there is a boot on

I remember when i broke my foot that same thing happened to me. After a while you foot will get better and you'll walk normal without any problems or tingly sensations

it's most likely that your boot is just a little too tight- i'd loosen it a bit. If it still persists, I would call your doctor, just to check in about it. Never hurts to ask!
