Numbness in lower part of my body..(below waist)

[Ravish69]

Hi,
I`m experiencing numbness in the lower part of my body(below waist) since yesterday.
My medical past is not very good...I had Bells Palsy on my left cheek(8-10 Yrs back) & and a year back i had optic Neuritis(but )...Is this numbness also related somewhat to Neurology?

Both the times the dosage was of Vitamin B12..How can i increase B12 level in my body..
Pls help..

Is it something to worry about or simple medications can cure it??

Hi,
The numbness could be due to a problem with spinal nerves - Nerve entrapment ,
Nerve compression , Peripheral neuropathy ,Diabetic peripheral neuropathy , Polyneuritis and many other conditions . Please consult  a physician and neurologist for the diagnosis . You can take Vitamin B 12 supplements available over the counter regularly to increase the levels . Hope this helps you . Take care and regards !
