Tingling in limbs

2016-10-08 06:29:10
Hello, my father has been experiencing continuous tingling in the limbs and on face since last 2 months. He had limbo-sacral slip disc problem which was cured by physiotherapy by Dr. Sarangpani, Pune. It was advised to keep the exercises going since then and he couldn't do it for couple of months in between. The problem arose again with tingling in the hands, legs and face which makes him not feel them. There is no external pain just numbness. Sometimes the veins/nerves pain a lot from inside. He is not able to get sound sleep because of the pain from inside and numbness on the outside when rested. Can you please advise if it's a neurological problem or because of compression of veins due to disc slipping?

You should consult a neurosurgeon or neurologist which ever is near you. Need to see and examine patient before advising any thing.

If he has generalised numbness and tingling, he needs to be examined and evaluated by a neurologist...Please consult one as soon as possible...Could be due to several conditions including diabetes, neuropathy or stroke..
