I'm getting numbness in my right foot, mostly in the toes and ball of the foot. I also tend to get mid to low back tightness on the same side. My chiro told me that my pelvis is tilted. I suspect this is causing imbalance and nerve problems. Just wondering if anyone has experienced foot or toe numbness as a result of the saddle pressing on the wrong spots. I suspect it's not the saddle but my crooked body. Has anyone experienced similar symptoms from her saddle?

Not a doctor, but there is a seatpost that allows for side to side tilt. Maybe it can support your pelvis better in its tilted state?

are you sure that it's not caused by your shoes? I'm having a similar problem, but both feet. I'm fairly certain I'll be getting new shoes soon.

Now there are three threads on this subject at the same time. Hard to keep track.
