Answers:
Peripheral Neuropathy-loss of sensation, followed by muscle weakness and atrophy, in the affected extremity.. Vitamin B 12 supplementation quickly resolved the numbness.. Neuropathy can have a number of causes.. Probably the most common is mechanical pressure on a nerve.. Under compression, the first nerve fibers to lose function are the ones that conduct sensation.. As the sensory fibers "go to sleep," the first signal perceived is the " pins-and-needles" tingling sensation.. And good luck..Health Question & Answer
This feeling is due to a poor circulation of the blood.. Perhaps you sleep in a poor posture so that some of the blood vessels on one side are pressed more heavily than normal.. Try sleeping on the other side..
Stress can do strange things too, and you should ask your doctor if he can help and he probably can.. If you are anxious or worried and depressed, these effects can contribute together, but there are tablets that can help..Health Question & Answer
