[via]Truth be told, the carpal bone is in the wrist.
It is the tarsal bone that is in the ankle.
Therefore, if you repeatedly performed a certain behavior with your toes, similar to repeated behaviors with your hands… then yes, you could get Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome (…instead of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome).
The symptoms of TTS include numbness and tingling of the foot and toes, a “pins and needles” feeling at night, and feelings of weakness in the ankle and of incoordination. Source

I like to help people find unique ways to do things in order to save time & money — so I write about “outside the box” ideas that most wouldn’t think of. As a lifelong dog owner, I often share my best tips for living with and training dogs. I worked in Higher Ed over 10 years before switching gears to pursue activities that I’m truly passionate about. I’ve worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo — to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV. You can always find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
