Welcome to Healthcare Magic,
Numbenss and tingling on limbs are abnormal sensations that can result from number of causes like any injury or pressure on any spinal nerves, deficiency of vit B12, change in Ca, K, Na levels, Diabetes, Carpel tunnel syndrome and many more. How long have you been getting such sensations? Are these so severe that they hinder you daily activities?
You must get an MRI and CT of head and spine. On the basis of the results, a treatment plan can be suggested. Do revert back with a result so that we can guide you. Certain cases have shown good results with proper exercise or diet regiment depending on the cause. Do not increase the dosage or stop/start any medication without consulting your doctor.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take care
Wish you good health.
