I think it depends on why your feet go numb. If it's because it fell asleep, then yes I think you will definitely still feel it because your nerves are still intact. If you are unable to feel your feet because you have nerve damage, and the nerve happens to be one supplying your toe, then no you won't. If you freeze your feet and shock the nerves, it may decrease the pain, but not take it away completely. If you anesthetize the foot, as they might in surgery, then obviously there will be no pain. As for feeling pain after the toe is cut off, there have been many accounts out there of people still feeling pain, sensation from a missing body part, even years after it has been gone, and that's just a phenomenon of your nervous system.

well if u mean numb by no blood is 2 ur foot , yes u would feel it. u would feel it anyway - just bc its numb and theres not much blood doesn't mean there's no nerves or bone.
u would feel the pain right away and it would hurt like heck after ur foot isn't numb :P

Well if your foot is totally numb, you wouldn't feel it (I guess), if just numb like what you get from having your feet up on the desk, then you'd sure feel it. And it would hurt later.

Yep you would feel it because the numbness is most likely on the surface only

People feel cut off limbs for the rest of their lives. They are called phantom pains, and they never go away.
