Inadequate Blood Flow

Inadequate blood flow is usually temporary and not cause for alarm, except in rare cases. Sitting on the foot or clenching the toes for prolonged periods of time can cause inadequate blood flow. Sitting with crossed legs may also be a cause.

Although less common, diabetes or peripheral artery disease can cause inadequate blood flow. Peripheral artery disease is a condition that causes the body's arteries to narrow, which restricts blood flow.
