Why Do I Experience Tingling Sensation In Arms And Legs, Having Undergone Plastic Surgeries?

been having tingling in my arms and legs and they are always cold. In 1992, I was in a very serious motorcycle accident at the age of 21. I ve had 20 surgeries on my left leg,plus numerous plastic surgeries to repair and replace all the damage. Since then, I am always cold unless the temp. is 75 or higher. Recently, I have been feeling tingles in my left leg and both my upper arms (I broke both shoulders). I m thinking circulation is becoming a problem and not sure what to do.

Hi,

Tingling and numbness occuring in hands and feet may be due to deficiency of vitamin B12. Consult the dermatologist and get investigations for the perfect diagnosis. If it is really deficiency of vitamin B12, take injection B12 intramuscularly daily for few dsys.

Hope this helps.
