What Causes Weakness And Numbness In Legs?
Question: My husband didn't sleep well last night said he was hot. When he got up this morning he felt weak and he fell. Said he has been feeling pain in his legs and some depression. He said he was burnin up but he didn't feel hot--clammy, but not hot. I put a cold compress on him and it helped. He's resting now.
Brief Answer:
Better t have him examined by a doctor.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern.
If he has weakness and feeling an altered sensation in his legs, it is possible that he has a neurological problem.
It would be better to take him to the ER and have him examined to see if there is any neurological or vascular problem producing these symptoms.
