Chronic Left-Sided Numbness and Nerve Pulling: What Could Be the Cause?

Patient's Query

Hi doctor iam having chronic pain complete left side feels different numbness sometimes goes pulling sensation from 6 years acupuncture treatment reduced some problem but gain problem same form head to toe nerves pulling sensation done with brain mri CT scan no problem found

Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

It sounds like you're experiencing long-term nerve-related symptoms despite normal MRI and CT scans. This could be due to peripheral nerve issues, muscle imbalances, postural problems, or even central sensitization—where the nervous system becomes overly reactive over time.

Acupuncture giving some relief suggests the issue might be functional or nerve-related rather than structural.
I recommend consulting a neurologist as issues in the cervical or lumbar spine can also cause these symptoms.

Meanwhile, continue gentle physical therapy, maintain hydration, and avoid long periods in one position.

My uncle met with an accident few days ago . He had a head injury. After few days he had lost his memory and also behaving aggressively

Male | 65

Your uncle may suffer from a disorder known as Post-Traumatic Amnesia (PTA) after an injury to the head. Memory loss and aggressive behavior are pervasive symptoms. It is because the main point gets violated, hence, it can be the cause of behavioral changes. Rest, avoiding stress, and patience are necessary for your uncle's recovery.

Tingling feet and hand, back pain

Male | 30

The tingling sensation on toes and hands and spine pain could be symptoms of nerve damage or pressure. It is best to see a neurologist who may perform tests to determine the cause and provide suitable treatment. Ignoring these symptoms only means that there will be more complications.

You are having stress and anxiety symptoms. Stress can result in poorer memory, anxiety, and distorted reality. Fatigue, perpetual gloom, and delusion are also possible indicators of stress. To feel better, engage yourself in some calming activities such as breathing deeply, speaking with someone you trust, or doing something you like, such as listening to music or taking a walk.

I tend to jump to worse case scenario but I recently got diagnosed with vertigo caused by middle ear fluid and recently it’s came back since where I am the weather has gotten worse and my vision is kind of blurry sometimes and I have a hard time focusing on someone when they are talking how likely is it that this is being caused by a brain tumor and not the middle ear vertigo or am I just completely over thinking this

Female | 21

The blurry vision and the difficulty in focusing can be the vertigo that the ear fluid causes. It is common and it does not mean that you have a brain tumor. The ear fluid can mess up your balance and vision. Usually, it gets better on its own, but you might need medicine or special exercises if the problem keeps bothering you.
