The numbness could be originating from your lumbar spine. An orthopedic spine surgeon can tell you best. he will order a simple xray in his office and see if you have disc compression. That's where my numbness showed up. Yes, strengthening your core will help immensely!

@loriesco Thank you! I assume you saying that your numbness showed up in your shins also. Also, recently I have had severe weakness and symptoms of spinal stenosis in my back. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would have to worry about something like that. But here I am, so I will get it checked and rule it in or out. Could you share what core strengthening exercises work for you? Thanks for your comment, it is very much appreciated!
