Hello,

Duloxetine can help to give symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist, better consult a neurologist and get evaluated. You have to get a Doppler scan to rule out peripheral vascular disease.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
