Brief Answer:
We have to exclude medical cause then
Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting Ayurveda with your health concerns.
1. Since Orthopaedic opinion is taken with necessary investigation he must have taken due consideration in ruling out PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease) and Herniated Disc as the cause of numbness.
2. So in order to proceed further we have to exclude medical causes of the same:
I. Take opinion of Neurologist to exclude any Neurological cause of numbness
II. check with your Blood sugar and Vitamin B12 level
III. Any prolonged Substance Abuse like alcohol?
Do revert back.

1. since there is no short cut to any diagnosis thus one has to rule/exclude causes of numbness through general examination and physical presence. [Vaat+Pitta]
PS. In Ayurveda we also deal with numbness after ruling out every aspect, we can either consider it as Siragat Vaaat/ Supt Vaat or Snayugat Vaat or Sira Marma Abhigaat.
2. make sure your Occupation [constant sitting in same position] and/or dietary/ lifestyle [exposure to cold/dry food and whether, overweight ( high cholesterol)] is not an underlying cause.
3. In Ayurveda we usually follow the line of treatment according to:
Vatarakta or Gambhir Vatarakta thus following is/are recommended guidelines
