3. Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome

Tarsal tunnel syndrome occurs when pressure is applied to the posterior tibial nerve which is located in the inner heel. This can cause numbness and tingling in the ankle and surrounding area. It is similar to carpal tunnel syndrome, although less common it is, however, no less painful. It can cause tightness, shooting pain, burning and shock-like sensations.
