What Causes Skin Numbness On The Right Side Of Torso And Thigh?

Further tests are needed...
Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Waking up with skin numbness on the right side of torso and right arm and thigh might be related to:
- neurological problems (possible minimal stroke especially if considering being overweight and smoker)
- spine nerves compression on right side
- you have slept on right side overnight and got right side numbness. Being overweight increases chances for numbness.
If the numbness won't improve during the day, then, I advise to get further evaluated by a neurologist to exclude neurological problems.
Diabetes testing and cardiac tests are also advised to analyze your health condition further.
Meanwhile, I advise to:
- eat healthy
- try to quit smoking
- get more physically involved
- take acetaminophen or ibuprofen
- start taking multivitamin supplementation (of B complex group and magnesium)
- drink more water
Hope it was of help!
