What Causes Sore Throat,head Ache Ear Ache And Prickly Feeling In Legs?

I am 67 year old woman . Never sick before this started. Two years ago I went to the dentist and came home and started feeling sick. Bad sore throat headache earache. Went to clinic got antibiotics. No help. Eventually throat cleared up but two weeks later got a sever headache. Since then all different things have happened. Earach in my right ear never went away cannot put any pressure on it . Now left is doing the same but not a severe. Have had a pins and needles prickly feeling starting on my hands legs scalp . Legs at one time very weak and it felt like I could feel inside of my leg bones hurting. Have just stopped taking Claridin because my right side started hurting. I had my gallbladder removed on October2 this year. I have not felt we ll since that day two years ago. Every day it seems to be some thing different. I also have strange pressure sensations or soreness all over my head. I went to the dentist and he said Tmj. But I think something else is happening. Went to heart doctore he wanted to do a heart catherazation to look for blockage. I do not know what to do.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case,

Due to spinal disc bulge there can be compression of nerve supplying your leg leading to pain. You may need to do MRI spine to see for nerve compression.
Due to compression of nerve there is leg pain with it.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.


Blood work up and EMG-NCV [nerve conduction] study will help.
After blood studies your haemoglobin levels will be confirmed.
Low haemoglobin can lead to leg pain.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
