My Wife is getting pain from head to leg on whole left side of the body. Pain will start mostly in the night time. It will be there for 3-4 hrs. Pain will be kind of pinching one.
Sometimes it will be more in head, sometimes in hand and then sometimes in leg. Whole pain is propogating in left side of the body.
Can you please suggest some treatment or where to consult.

Brief Answer:
It can be vitamin B 12 deficiency
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir,
I have read your case, and it looks to me that she might be having vitamin B 12 deficiency. I want to advice you following.
1. Ger her Serum B 12 estimation and serum Calcium.
2. Get her blood sugar level and T3, T4 ,TSH level.
She might be having peripheral neuropathy or B 12 deficiency so these investigations will help in confirming our diagnosis. For headache she might need to take a psychiatric opinion. If it is migraine then she might need treatment for it. If headache episodes are more then 4 to 5 times per month then she need prophylactic treatment.
I hope these things will help her. Let me know if you want to ask any other questions.
Thanks.

Actually she did vitaminB12 test at that time, i could not share the report at that time. In the report it was mentioned it is towards lower margin. she had consulted Gyncalogist and she prescribed NeuroBion Forte. She is taking this medicine for last 20 days and she is feeling that intensity of pain is reduced but still it is continuing. sometimes the pain is for the whole day on left side.
Can you please guide further on it or to where consult in XXXXXXX

Brief Answer:
Treatment needs to be continued for six weeks to three months
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I studied your case and I think you need to continue these medicines for six weeks. It is very early to comment just after ten days. You can show to neurologist in Banglore.
