What Causes Numbness On The Back And Pain In The Right Leg?
Hello, Most probably it will be due to spine related problems like a prolapsed disc or nerve compression. As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopaedician and plan for an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
