Suggest Treatment For Numbness In The Wrist
I have recently been poisoned by killer algae and have also been bitten multiple times by mosquitos. I am currently experiencing numbness around my right wrist, but i was not bitten in this area. Could you let me know why this would be? And also i have had the itching sensation for over 2 days now, is this normal?

Hello,
Numbness around the wrist is related to pathology around wrist, elbow or neck.
If you have any problem around the elbow or neck, get X-ray of that. Otherwise, if no problem, then MRI is advised.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
