Why do my legs and feet go numb?

Why do my legs and feet go numb when I sit on the toilet reading books?

  • Answer:

    The numbness is caused by the pressure from the seat on both circulation and nerves. I've had the experience and found that the padded/cushion seats can postpone the results but eventually the result is the same. The toilet seat was obviously not designed for the "rest"room but for the "hurry up and get out"room.

let me guess.... you rest your fore arms on your lower thigh or knees right? you are cutting off the circuation even faster by adding pressure from your arms.... dont worry about it. Wile there is really no way to stop it, it wont harm you....

lack of circulation, from what i can figure out. your legs in that postion for a long period of time = poor blood circulation. straighten em out while u sit there, otherwise wipe, get up, and get in a more comfortable chair my friend. i do agree with the wonderful reading spot though. 7
