Suggest Remedy For Numbness In A Patch Of Skin
I have a path of skin about 3 inches long and 2 inches wide that is completely numb, no feeling of hot or cold or pain of any kind, I had someone touch the area with my eyes closed and I couldn t tell that they were touching me at all. Should I go see a neurologist?

hi, welcome to HCM,
No, you need consultation with dermatologist.
most probably you are suffering from hansen's disease. treatment continues for 6 mth to 1 year as per type of disease.
consult your dermatologist for confirmation of diagnosis and start treatment accordingly.
hope this is helpful.
thanks
