Started as itch on left side of back and progressed to a numbess spreading across the back towards the right. Husband said nothing visible ( like pin prick). Can feel pain in localized area now. Thought it might be shingles , but no blisters. Its so painful I cannot wear bra.
Thank you very much for contacting Chat Doctor. Nerve compression may cause pin and needle like pain at back region. Displaced or bulging of disc may cause nerve irritation or compression. X-ray is helpful for diagnose. MRI is helpful for further diagnosis. Consent a physician for further diagnosis. I hope my guidance is helpful to you. Take care. Thank you.
