What Causes Numbness In My Right Foot?
I am looking for neurologist in Katy or closest to Columbus, Texas. I have come from my regular doctor today and have no deficiencies in anything, not diabetic either but experiencing numbness / burning sensation in my right foot primarily and some of the same in my right foot. Need doctor that qualifies w/United Healthcare since I am not on Medicare (age 63/Female). Can you suggest doctor?

Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM.
I reviewed facts of your query in context to your health issues and feel concerned about them.
My Opinion-
In My opinion, in the given situation you seem to suffer from-Spinal Canal stenosis with ? mostly from degenerative osteopathy of Lumbar spine.
Do's Suggested-
Consults with Spinal Neurosurgeon with contrast CT study of Thoraco-lumbar spine.Conservative treatment with RFA ablation of Osteophytes and or Endoscopic PID decompression may give relief instead of any radical decompression surgery.
Experts at Vivian L Smith -Department of Neurosurgery-Dr. Daniel H.Kim or others at the centre would be better options for treating your complex case at this advanced age.
Other causes need to be ruled out,after getting more details from you.
