Suggest Treatment For Numbness In The Left Arm

I am experiencing occasional numbness in my left arm for the past two weeks and have now just recently started experiencing small knobs of pain in my left leg (one was on the inside of my left calf and the other one was just on the inside of my left thigh). Is this something I should be worried about?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely investigate yourself for heart diseases.
Left sided chest pain is commonly seen with heart diseases.
So better to consult doctor and get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
