It sounds like you're experiencing a variety of sensations, including numbness, burning, and tightness in your left leg. These symptoms could indicate issues related to nerve function or circulation. It’s essential to consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation. They can perform tests to determine the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatments. In the meantime, try to avoid excessive pressure on your nerves, engage in gentle stretching, and monitor your activities.

Some kids have difficulty with movement and speaking clearly. This can stem from various reasons. One possibility for a child this age is a neuromuscular disorder, which affects the muscles and nerves involved in movement and speech. It's crucial to take the child to a pediatric specialist for tests to determine the exact cause. Meanwhile, ensure the child gets plenty of rest and proper nutrition. Avoid activities that risk falls or injuries. Addressing symptoms promptly helps the child feel better and stronger.
