Hello Doctor, I am 36 years old now. i do have thy numbness in my right leg. Earlier it was on my left leg. I do have this problem quite recently. I need advise on to which specialist I should I take consultation for this problem? thanks for your help.
Hello, I have studied your case and I think you need to see a neurologist or a spine surgeon. Such numbness is suggestive of nerve compression in the back or vitamin B 12 deficiencies. In such cases you need to take blood serum level of B 12 and MRI of the spine. It will tell use if there is disc herniating or not. If yes then it should be taken care of. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
