What Medical Condition Causes Numbness, Pain And Stiffness In The Right Side Of The Body And Impaired Vision And Speech In A 25-year-old?

My son is experiencing tingling, numbness, pain, stiffness along with vision and speech impairment on his right side only. The doctors are not sure if it is a stroke or not. He is 25 years old and a stroke seems unlikely to me. He has been experiencing seizures for the past two years as well. Can you tell me what you think could be his issue please?

Hi,

What is the MRI report of your son? It may possible stroke in young caused by vasculitis or cysticercosis or tuberculous endarteritis or anemia or electrolyte imbalance or a paralytic migraine etc.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.

Get it done protein C and S level, EEG, carotid Doppler, c-ANCA, p-ANCA and MR angiography.

Then consult your neuro physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
