What Causes Numbness And Tingling Sensation All Over The Body?

To check for ischemia brain and cervical spondylosis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for your query.
I'm Dr. Shuba Hariprasad and will be answering your query today.
Based on your symptoms I would like to primarily rule out ischemic stroke (transient) and cervical spondylosis (nerve compression at neck spine level)
Would you clarify a few things for me please?
*what is your height and weight?
*do you smoke or consume alcohol?
*do you have any other medical issues (diabetes, heart disease, for instance)? Or take any medications?
*any history of surgery or injury/accident?
*how often do these symptoms occur? Everyday?
Any particular triggers that you noticed? Like working for long, looking up with neck extended (bent back), bending, sudden change in position?
*any changes in the clarity of speech? (noticed by others)
*any headache, giddiness or sweating? Vomiting? Nausea?
I recommend :
- a physician consult
-an electrocardiogram a day echocardiogram
-MRI of the brain with MRA and MRV( for the blood supply in your brain) and of spine
-blood tests (complete blood count, Thyroid stimulating hormone, electrolytes, kidney and liver function tests, lipid profile, blood glucose panel)
Based on the clinical findings and test results, a treatment plan will be initiated.
I urge you to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid serious complications like a massive stroke or spinal disc collapse.
Hope this helps.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr. Shuba Hariprasad
