What Could Have Caused My Entire Right Side Of The Body To Feel Numb?

The entire right side of my body is experiencing what I believe to be nerve damage, it started with just my right foot, and then moved up my leg, and today I’ve been experiencing it in my upper body. I don’t know what to do, I’ve tried everything I’ve found online as treatment and I have no idea what could’ve caused it to this extent. It has been 3 days since this feeling started and i don’t know what could’ve caused it.

Hello,

You can have neurological pain by nerve compression. The bulged disc also can be the cause for nerve compression. Your detailed neurological examination need to be done along with X-ray of lumbar spine. The Pregabalin like medicine can be prescribed for your nerve compression pain.

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

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
