Pins and needles in foot!

[A.P.E Knott]

You have gor away lightly.
I suffered a prolapsed disc a few years ago and had pins and needles in my foot.
Mind you the P&Ns were the last thing I was bothered about ,the pain was something else !!.
Search Amazon and buy the Macenzie "Treat your own back " book.
The advise I have just given you is priceless act on it.

I bought the book but to be honest, I think it was the running that cured me.

Thanks for all for the advice.

Went to the physio today and her view is that one of the discs has split a bit. The gunk which has leaked out is affecting the sciatic nerve hence the pain and p&n. The recommended stretch is lying on my front then pushing up with my arms and holding that position.

Reckon I'll rest it for a couple of weeks but do some light walking on the fells. Not sure if swimmig might help. Also need to stop seeing it as an excuse to drink wine as not running.

Worse thing was walking to the shop tonight and bumping in to the club off to do hill reps!
