Hi,
It may be due to neuralgia or poor circulation. Consult the physician or surgeon for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. Also get test for serum vitamin B12...if low, take inj. Vitamin B 12 IM daily for few days. For neuralgia pregabalin 100 mg tablets and for poor circulation vasodilator like cap trental 400 may be considered.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
