Is Numbness In The Left Side Of Face, Throat, Tongue, Neck And Arm To Be Worried?
Dear Doctor,
Iam having a numbness on the left side of my face, throat, tougue, neck and left arm for the past few days.
Is there something that i need to be worried about or wait for a few more days before going to meet a doctor ?
Thanks & Regards

Hi Jacob, thank you for posting your query on health care magic.
Looking at your symptoms,it might be suggestive of reduced blood supply in a part of brain due to blood vessel blockage might be due to blood clot.
It would be advisable to consult a Neurologist doctor as soon as possible.MRI brain and few blood test like Serum Cholesterol may be required to find the cause.
Hope this answers your question.Take care.
