Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I have numbness in my upper left quadrant of my abdomen. It s just below the ribcage. I only experience it while sitting. It comes on, then goes in about 30 seconds. It feels like my foot falling asleep or something. It s been happening for about 2 weeks now.
Hi! One must understand clearly that only numbness over the abdomen without any other problem is not due to any serious abdominal pathology.It might be due to some kind of anxiety disorder or a subtle manifestation of a depressive episode. Cut down your stress level by various relaxation techniques and your problem will vanish. Get well soon!
