Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Anxiety disorders can manifest not only with psychological symptoms but with a variety of physical symptoms also like: Tingling, numbness, hot and cold sensations, palpitation, pain in multiple parts of body, choking sensation, tremors (shakiness) etc.

Kalms is a traditional herbal medicinal product used to relieve anxiety. Tramadol is a opioid compound and may lead to addiction on it on prolonged use.

It is better to get evaluated by psychiatrist to find out cause of anxiety and start treatment accordingly. For long term control of anxiety following measures are helpful: relaxation exercise, medicines like SSRIs and non drug treatment like CBT.

Wish you good health and all the best.

Regards,
