My left arm has been going numb from my elbow to all of my fingers and hand. I work at a desk. Sometimes I can't even type. I drink water and coffee. I was born with a double aortic arch. Had surgery at 4 days old, never had any heart problems since then. My arm has been doing this for a couple of months and will stay that way anywhere from 15 minutes to 3 or 4 hours. Should I see a doctor or what can I do?
View 1 RepliesI have had a numb left leg for about 5 months now from my thigh down to my knee and it seems to be getting worse and going down to the rest of my left leg. I also have these weird scars that look red or bloody from the inside and there is 3 of them and they showed up out of nowhere overnight. My doctor has given me blood tests and MRI's and nothing has shown up abnormal.
View 1 RepliesI am after some reassurance (aren't we all!) For the last 24hrs I have been suffering with numbness in my left arm/hand and leg, aching, tingly and cold hand. I also get a weird sensation of like bubbles popping in my leg (best way I can describe it) -anyone else had this? I suffer with anxiety but it seems to of gone up another level recently, more to do with my health. I went to the doctors about it today and he checked me over, said he was not worried about it being anything serious and that 'some people get it'. I said what about anxiety and he said that could be a possibility- and that was it! I came away feeling no more the wiser and frustrated that my anxiety does not seem to be being picked up on as I have mentioned it a couple of times previously. It seems to be one thing after another at the mo and i am really struggling with the way my anxiety is taking over me - I hate it and I do not want to be like this. Does anyone have any recommendations of books, Youtube, on anxiety?

View 3 RepliesIt has been nearly ten months now since my first TKR, and the left side of my calf remains NUMB. I am not experiencing this on my right leg on which I had my TKR about five months ago.
Will the numbness always be there?
Why such a difference between legs/numbness?
I have no difficulty MOVING either leg/knee, but the NUMB feeling just feels so weird!
I was healthy and happy then got a headache so bad that 6 migraine excedrin did not touch it. Went to bed and woke up in middle of night with my entire left side numb and tingling.

Two mri later, going for a third, clean blood work, eeg, many trips to er and no answer

View 1 RepliesHistory:
A month earlier I fell off my motor-bike. For almost three days my leg was fine.
Symptoms:
- I started having that cold/semi-numb feeling in my left thigh as if the veins are blocked
- When I lift heavy object or jog for 15 minutes the left leg can't hold my weight
- I feel a little better while standing
- I also sometimes feel a sharp pinch in thigh muscle and hip
I'm pretty sure I don't have broken bones.
What could have gone wrong?
I have an ACL ligament tear in my left knee. This happened about five years ago. I was on waiting list & got a call to do surgery, but then I got pregnant, so I had to go back on waiting list. It must be a long list because I am still waiting. They have looked at it again because of the soreness around the knee when I walk. My doctor told me I have mild arthritis in my left knee now, but can still go through surgery.
This past week, I was in a situation where I didn't do much walking, laid around for most of day. I didn't have a pillow to use for my knee to be propped up, so I just used my right leg or had my left leg on its side when I laid down on my left side. I don't feeling anything around my knee now. It is numb! Would anyone know what is wrong? I tried to apply ice to it, but I can't feel it. I still can walk ok, though. Thanks!
Why cant i straighten my elbow / arm after fall?
6 weeks ago i had a nasty fall on my elbow and my elbow got really bruised and swollen since then my arm got back to normal but i cannot straighten it at all and i am in alot of pain .. i had it xrayed and is not broken .
My elbow become very stiff after a humerus fracture, especially after elbow immobilization for an extended period of time, I was trying to practice a Six Pack Active Hand Exercises but i can't execute an exercises number : (3) and (4) because i can't bend my fingers more than 90 ; and i can't make a fist .
View 1 RepliesRecently I have noticed that I can't bend my elbow all the way and I assume it's because I worked it too much and didn't stretch. It only hurts a little bit when I try to extend it all the way. Is there any way I can fix it?
View 1 RepliesI wonder whether anyone else has experienced this sharp pain simultaneously in their elbow and rib. Mine is on the right side and the pain is literally at exactly the same time and in my rib it seems to be directly adjacent from my elbow with my arm down by my side. It started two nights ago. I have been in touch with ra nurses but had to just leave a message, yesterday, but nobody has come back to me yet. It really is an odd pain, but really sharp and stops me in my tracks. It will go on for several minutes, breaking off every few seconds, then will go off for a few hours and then start again. Also my upper abdomen seems really distended, I have no idea whether that is connected in any way.
View 1 RepliesI had a fall on june 17th 2014. Fell about 20 feet onto a concrete floor. I fractured the humerus, fairly simple fracture straight across the midshaft, no surgery. fracture to the elbow, and got radial nerve damage.
It is now week 14 and although the nerves are back and my wrist is fully functional, both fractures are yet to heal, the humerus fracture is fairly straight, and some callous is appearing, but there is still movement in the fracture site. And the elbow still shows a fracture.
I now have an electromagnetic device to help with the healing, 30 mins a day i can use it for.
Just wanted to know if anyones had success with one?
Also seeing as i broke the elbow the arm has been held in a sling this whole time, without straightening of the arm, so the inside of my elbow is getting very inflamed, but not painful yet, anything i can do to help it?
Two weeks ago my bf and I were doing stuff. He rubbed my vagina but did not finger me. He didn't put his finger inside me but he did touch me when I was wet. He might have had precum in his finger but I'm not so sure about it. After he did that there were little drops of blood in my underwear. It happened only on that day. Could I be pregnant? I've been really very tensed and my period is late. I repeat, I've been very very tensed. could I be pregnant?
