Question
Hello, my fiance is experiencing the upper padding of his foot swelling and becoming numb.  He is also having leg pains, periods of nausea and dizziness.  What could be causing all of this?

Answer
This Chicago & Elmhurst Podiatrist says.......

Dear Michelle,

Consider the Emergency Room-Sudden foot,leg numbness with nausea and dizziness can be symptoms of a stroke.
It may be something else-which may not be an emergency,but also needs to be looked at.
The advice that I give you is do not delay in getting a diagnosis.
Hope This Helps
Good Luck!
