I have a spot on the outer part of my right leg that is numb to light touches and burns and feels like my skin is tearing when I neel down on my knees. Its been like this for 6 months or so. I also have problems with my fingures going numb while holding objects and I have random dizzy spells.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Welcome to heathcare magic. It looks like your nerve roots are getting irritated and thus causing these symptoms. Get your MRI done for cervical as well as lumbar vertebra. Cervical spondylosis might cause symptoms of giddiness. Best thing will be to consult orthopedic surgeon and physiotherapist. Exercise, right posture will be helpful to keep this in control. If you are vegetarian , get your Vitamin D and Vitamin B12 levels done to rule out deficiency.
