What Causes Numbness In The Legs?
Today when we had an assembly I was sitting cross legged and when I got up I couldn t feel my legs and they gave up on me and I fell. I tried getting up again but I fell again it took me a while to walk . Is this serious? And how do I prevent this from happening again?
