Why does my foot/leg always fall asleep..?!


Question: Why does my foot/leg always fall asleep..?
Is this serious? It does at LEAST once a week, probably about 2-3 times a week. It usually lasts from a mintue to up to 5minutes or so... How do i fix it? What is the cause of it? Should I go to the doctor?

I'm 20 years old and would like to say I'm generally healthy.

How are you sitting when your leg falls asleep? That is the likely answer. Body parts fall asleep when blood flow is reduced or cut off. So you could be sitting in a way that restricts blood flow to your leg/foot.



it falls asleep because of the lack of blood circulation, by the way ur sitting, its somehow cutting of ur circulation, dont worry its not serious happens to me all the time, ahhahaha



Its sleepy silly :P
