helo sir thanks for the query

it would be useful if u had.provided the persons age and any other problems

ok nxt the symptoms u described like hemisensory symptoms in.which case u require brain.imaging i would expect this if the person is elderly and diabetic/hypertension

and nxt possibility would be migraine head ache which can.present like dis

sm times cervical spinndylosis can cause neck pain and arm pain but shuldnt cause leg pain unless there is spondylosis at lumbar level

or i woulf consider it as vauge symptoms tne arm.n.leg pain only after ruling out al othet causes

i would suggest u to see a neurologist for further workup

Thank you
