Question
I have not sprained or broken any bones
the weaknes is sudden almost as a carpal tunnel the pain is on the outside

Answer
Might be Tarsal Tunnel syndrome..which is like carpal tunnel of the foot, there is a nerve that gets inflammed or injured and causes numbness and tingling in the foot. May need surgery.Other thing could be peroneal nerve injury which is nerve that runs from outside knee to outside of foot.
