Illegal string offset in array foreach

Question

I send this array to php and when I want to show the results the following error appears:

"Illegal string offset 'nombre_color'"

This is the array result made with print_r() in the same php before the error:

Array(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [med_id] => 1
            [codigo] => 1111111111
            [medida] => XL
            [nombre_color] => Negro
            [color] => #000000
            [precio] => 1111
            [anterior] => 1000
            [stock] => 100
            [disponible] => 1
        )
)

And this is the part of code that gives me error:

foreach($medidas as $medida){
    $med_id = $medida['med_id'];
    $codigo = $medida['codigo'];
    $medida = $medida['medida'];
    $nombre_color = $medida['nombre_color'];
    $color = $medida['color'];
    $precio = $medida['precio'];
    $anterior = $medida['anterior'];
    $stock = $medida['stock'];
    $disponible = $medida['disponible'];
}

Thanks in advance for your help.

The name of foreach var ($medida) and index of one element was the same

array_shift() : Shift an element off the beginning of array

extract() : Import variables into the current symbol table from an array

You could use array_shift wit extract

$medidas = array_shift($medidas);
extract($medidas);//This will make each index as variable i.e.
echo $med_id;

Extract is lame - forget about IDE and static analysis.
