I would be most grateful for any help anyone can offer - I am a medical transcriptionist and for the last six months or so, I have found the balls of my feet going numb when I use my pedal. I have tried switching feet, putting on various shoes, and nothing seems to help for long. Rubbing the foot with one of those circular foot massagers does help but doesn't stop the discomfort. Sometimes the numbness extends to the top of my foot, too. I am willing to go to a podiatrist but I am wondering if anyone else has ever had this - all the transcriptionist I have asked about this have never had this problem, so I am frustrated and concerned, as I like my job very much!
