Suggest Treatment For Numbness In The Leg

Question: So my daughter, 38, good athletic went for a run. Later that night she had bulging vein down one side of her leg. Later the next day spread to the other side of her leg and foot. The pain went away but there is just numbness in her leg instead.My daughter was putting cold presses on her legs after this happened.
Brief Answer:
I think it can be a muscle pull or nerve stretching
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. I think she had stretched her muscles or nerve giving rise to these symptoms. This is not due to blood clot for sure.
I have following suggestions for her.
1. she should continue the ice fomentation for next 24 hours followed by Hot water fomentation.
2. Tablet Methylcobal for nerve stretching after proper prescription by your local physician.
3. take rest, avoid standing for long time.
4. compression bandage can be applied.
I hope these steps will be helpful for you. Let me know if their is any other followup questions.
Thanks
