Is It Normal To Have Pins And Needle Sensation In Legs Post Surgical Abortion?

Hi I had surgical abortion three weeks back. I m having pain in my legs and needle like pain in other body parts. Pain is very mild. Pain is not constant. At times one part is paining at times other and lasts shortly. Mild pain at times in the sides of abdomen which again lasts quickly. Please suggest if this is normal

Hello,

Pins and needle sensations are due to developing Peripheral Neuropathy. You are neglecting yourself after abortion. Visit ER, get investigated, get blood tests done.

Your gyne may do a per vaginal checkup to rule out any abortion products left that may be causing the symptoms. Get Nerve conduction tests done.

Generalized weakness may cause such symptoms. Take multivitamin tabs & iron capsules. Take food rich in minerals, high protein & calcium. Take vitamin B6, B12, minerals.

Take antacids, analgesics & Spasmol (Spasmoproxyvon) when required.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
