Brief Answer:
Can you provide more details about the location?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this numbness and painful left leg. However, numbness makes pain unlikely but it is my thinking that you may not have clearly started what the problem is. I will like that you describe these symptoms in more details with special emphasis on the location.

I will recommend that you take pain medications such as Tylenol and also apply ice packs to it. This way, the pain would be relieved. I will also appreciate that you try to upload an image of this leg for review and more insights.

To upload an image, simply click on the link to upload a file and follow the instructions. If this proves difficult, please send the image by mail to YYYY@YYYY and request that the image should be uploaded to your query.

I hope to hear from you. I Wish you well. Feel free too ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
