Brief Answer:
The symptoms are suggestive of mild neuropathy.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.

I have noted your clinical details. Based on this, the symptoms are suggestive of mild neuropathy, due to involvement of nerves in the skin.
The common causes are pressure over the nerves, diabetes, vitamin B12 deficiency and thyroid disease. Please get the blood tests- blood sugar, vitamin B12 and TSH tested.

There is no need to worry, as it can be easily treated with medicines.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,

Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
