General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

A detailed evaluation is required. Neuropathic and vascular causes have to be ruled out. MRI and nerve conduction study have to be done. Consult a neurologist and he will direct you accordingly.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
