What Causes Numbness In Feet While Having A Bowel Movement?

Whenever I have a bowel movement, my feet fall asleep. I have tried leaning in every direction I can think of and elevating my feet and moving my feet constantly but nothing helps. Sometimes the feeling doesn't return to my feet for 15 minutes or more. Should I be concerned?
