Tail Bone Injury, Numbness In Fingers, Feet Pain, Muscle Cramps. Treatment?
Could a tail bone injury ten months ago now be causing numbness in two fingers on my left hand and pain in my feet , muscle cramps and my toes are morphing.. feet are sore too. what sort of doctor should i go see.. two GPs have seen me but that was before the feet started acting funny. one day i had cramps in both my feet for over a half hour
I have studied your case. Due to compression of this nerve root there is numbness in your finger and toe.
I will advise you to do MRI spine For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started. Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. 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. Tail bone pain can be due sacral injury.
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.
