Why is my left shin numb and cold?

I have this cold numbing sensation going down my left shin. Also, my left shin is colder to the touch then my right shin.

1 Answer

Answered on 22nd Aug '24

You could probably have a situation that is called peripheral neuropathy, something that has to do with the nerves that send signals to your leg and possibly there is a problem with that. This can be the reason why you feel the numbing sensation and the difference in temperature between your shins. It's best to have a neurologist check this out to determine the cause and talk about treatment options.

i'm getting extreme severe pain at the back of head. it's feeling as if someone's hitting me with hammer with each heartbeat. I had lunch in the afternoon and slept. The pain has been there from the moment I woke up. It's in the occipital region, like the occipital headache. I'm assuming 4 main reasons. 1st one is gastric pain(if gas pain has been struck in my head). it occured to me before and also maybe this time since I didn't walk after having lunch, i usually have gastric issue. 2nd is I have severe wax in my ear. my ear's also paining, so i'm assuming this back head pain because of ear wax. third is the stress/strain which i've been experiencing from a month or so, due to the exam fear n stress, i didn't sleep properly from a month and yesterday night I had undergone an incident with the biggest stress in my life, so, i'm assuming that. 4th reason is that frm childhood, i have severe severe body heat within my body, my body overheats a lot within and i had continously overheating food from 2 days and didn't drink much water, so i'm also assumung pain because of overheating. pls tell me the final diagnosis. Dear Sir/Mam, you can cross question me how much ever deep u want ! jus give me the cause n solution pls doctor! i'll be really really grateful to u sir/mam

i am 33 year old female 4 days back i started suffering from a terrible head ache and feeling weak now i am noticing my lymp nodes behind my ears are swollen and my eyes i painful today they where swollen what might be the cause

Female | 33

Severe headaches, weakness, swollen lymph nodes behind the ears, and painful, swollen eyes could indicate an infection, possibly sinusitis, which is the inflammation of the sinuses. Get plenty of rest, drink lots of fluids, and apply warm compresses to the eyes to reduce swelling. If the symptoms persist, seek medical evaluation and treatment.

I take no medication, I have right sided head including eye and neck pressure which make me uneasy to sit without support, i only feel sharp pain and red spot in right eye when I walk a little. Neck strain and hair pulling is also common also this all happen almost everyday for a long time.

Female | 23

Discomfort is happening on the­ right side of your head, eye­, and neck. Sharp pain and red spots in your right eye­ appear when moving around. Neck te­nsion and hair pulling may cause these fe­elings. Gentle ne­ck stretches, rest, and warm compre­sses on your neck can help re­lax muscles.

Why I am feeling suddenly dizziness

Female | 24

Dizziness can make you feel like things are spinning or you're off balance. It can happen if you stand up too quickly, are dehydrated, or get up after lying down. Sometimes, it's due to low blood sugar. Other reasons could be problems in the inner ear or even stress. To help, sit or lie down, drink water, and eat if your blood sugar is low. If it persists, talk to a healthcare provider so they can figure out the cause.

Hi !my son was taking a medicine epival 250mg for last 6 years he is seizure free no attack no fit is observed during that duration but on Eid day he got a seizure after fasting in Ramadan when he wake up. His friends brought him to doctors he said due to weakness and lack of sleep this happened.In those days he was showing carelessness in taking medicine I AM asking you that after a long time he got a seizure how much time he has to take medicine to become seizures free in future He is 22 years of age .please answer me hopefully he is my only son now doctor has recommended him epival 500 mg twice a day

Male | Farhan shahid

After a long period without seizures, it is still possible for them to occur, especially if he misses his medication or becomes overly tired. Fasting and lack of sleep during the Eid period may have contributed. His physician recommends he take Epival 500mg twice daily. The new dosage is expected to reduce the frequency of seizures if taken regularly.

31 weeks growth scan report shows small head size 27.5 hc will it affect my babys brain development ,how to improve hc in pregnancy

Female | 24

A smaller head circumference (HC) can mean that the baby is not growing as fast as they should be. Genetics and poor food intake are some reasons why this may happen. Ensure you have a well-balanced diet throughout your pregnancy to increase HC; take plenty of nutrients too. In addition, your physician might suggest some supplements or keep a close eye on the infant’s development. Always keep in touch with your doctor so that both of you receive adequate care.

Male | 22

If you are experiencing neck stiffness, numbness at the back of your head, a bad headache, irritated eyes, body quivers, and extreme tiredness, these symptoms could be due to stress, lack of sleep, or an underlying medical issue. It's important to stay hydrated, take breaks from devices, and spend time outdoors. If the symptoms persist, talk to a healthcare provider for proper guidance.

I am paraplegic due to spine Tumour is it can be recovered may I walk again?

Female | 28

Spine tumour leading to paraplegia is a disease that requires specialist care. It is best to work with a neurologist or spine specialist who will evaluate your situation and advise you of any possible treatment alternatives. Recovery, that is to walk again is dependent upon the tumour type and extent of spinal cord damage.
