[|Human|] Hi I have pain and numbness in my feet and legs. Ihave had it for about 7 years now and I have been to about 10 doctors to tryand find out the problem but have had no diagnosis. I am 47 years old and other than that I am in perfect health and feel good . I have had all different blood tests, checked for diabetese .had nerve tests done , been to back doctors, and have had brain scans by a nuerologist and everthing came back negative. I am on tramedol now and have learned to live with the pain. Any suggestions.
[|AI|]  Here I suggest when there is a pain and numbness in legs that could be a possibility of problem at your lower back or else the problem for your leg circulation. For this you need to check whether you have pain from your back to radiating at your leg level as well do you have the numbness from your back to your legs if yes then there might be a possibility of having problem at your lower back spinal or disc level. However the conformation can be done by MRI scan of your back and if that is positive then you need to visit an orthopedic for further guidelines. If no then there might be a chance of having less blood flow to your lower limbs this can also be possible because of high cholesterol so I suggest going ahead with Doppler test as well as cholesterol test. Here this test will let you know about the circulation in your lower limb and cholesterol will help you to know your cholesterol level in body as per the result I suggest visiting a vascular surgeon if Doppler test is positive. And a physician if cholesterol is more and start treatment as per the result. There could be also possibility of atherosclerosis for your lower limb blood vessels this will also be diagnosed With Doppler test if you want to check physically you can hold the calf muscle belly and try to squeeze it if there is a pain at your calf muscle with this squeezing pressure that means the test is positive however the confirmation will be done only by Doppler test. But due to this also there might be a possibility of leg pain.at home you can also use hot water and Deep your legs in that to have some more relaxing effect on your soft tissues as well as increase the circulation with the effect of heat.in any of above case, you can also visit a physiotherapist who can guide you for good lower limb exercise program which will help to increase circulation as well as relax the soft tissues. Take care.
