Numbness in left leg calf
Hello, from a few days, sometimes I feel a kind of numbness/sense of no feeling in left leg calf. It is not all the time and just happens for few instants. Happens anytime when I am sitting or standing. I do not have any other problems as such, just had back head pain last year for which doctor gave me anxiety medicine at that time but not taking any medicine now. Also I had some covid symptoms last to last month though was tested negative.
Can someone suggest what the issue looks like and what should I do?

Depends on how much is it affecting you.what limitations are you facing, and a detailed history. On average, once in a while you can feel numb if you have taken a sit for very long time in a specific posture or some various issues, its depending on the severity and limitations you we have to treat. This thing needs detailed history taking so please, book a consultation for this and if possible, go see a doctor physically
