Hello Doctor,

 

I'm a 30-year-old woman, and over the last five days,I've encountered sensations of tingling, numbness, and discomfort in my extremities. These feelings appear to migrate from one limb to another.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

To address your symptoms, I recommend the following:

 

Calcium and Multivitamin Supplements: Incorporating calcium and a multivitamin into your daily routine can support overall nerve and muscle health. These supplements can help ensure you're getting essential nutrients.

 

Regular Walking: Engaging in daily walks, ideally covering a distance of around 3 kilometers, can contribute to improved circulation and overall well-being. Physical activity helps maintain healthy nerve function.

 

Blood Sugar Check: Given the tingling and numbness you're experiencing, it's essential to assess your blood sugar levels. High or fluctuating blood sugar can lead to neuropathy, causing such symptoms. Consult with your healthcare provider to determine your glucose levels.

 

Thyroid Evaluation: Thyroid imbalances can also manifest as tingling and discomfort in extremities. Consider getting a thyroid evaluation to rule out any thyroid-related issues.

 

Thanks
