Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.
There is possibility of transient ischemic episode leading to pain in numbness and blurring of vision.
You may need clinical examination to confirm neurological weakness, BP and other vital parameters.

Another probability is due to compression of this nerve root there is pain radiating to your arm.
You may require MRI brain and spine.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, you can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
