Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, these are symptoms of nerve compression in the spine, see if you have back pain, consult a neurologist and sought out the matter you will need an MRI
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
