I wish I knew because my right is from below the knee on the outside area of the , down to my ankle over across the top of my then the tops of my toes, (especially the big toe.) This started up about a week ago.
I'm not in any pain it hasn't affected the way I walk, but my skin is to the touch. I do feel a slight throbbing on the side of my knee area. I'm starting to think I need to see a doctor....I usually only see them when I'm really sick.
ANSWER
I have the same exact problem, it started about 6 weeks ago I finally went to the doctor. He says it is a pinched nerve in my back around the 4th or 5th lumbar. The nerve runs down the outside of my right to my toe making the area from the outside of the right knee down to the top of my toe (The upper part of my is fine my back hurts a little). The doctor all the research I've done says it should begin to feel better soon if I don't over-exert myself. If it does not get better soon I will need an MRI possibly surgery to relieve the pinched nerve. If left unchecked it can cause something called " Drop" which sounds pretty awful (You essentially won't be able to pick up your !). now I'm supposed to take it easy take an anti-inflammatory cross my fingers.
if anyone else has gone through this please let me know how it went if it got better on its own.

I had exactly that four years ago when I gave up smoking and started putting on weight. The numbness grew in both feet and up the leg over the years, now I have it in my fingers too! Doctors still don't know what it is exactly but it is probably a result of too much sugar in the blood, related to my damaged lower spine. Both are related to over-weight!
Maybe touching something to cold for to long,or not moving around,etc. Many things can cause numbness.
