Hello,
As the issue is with UTI, can be associated with gravels or calculus in the left side kidney, giving referred pain to the front side.
Numbness can be observer phenomenon and may not be necessarily significant clinically.
It is recommended to undertake a prescription of CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
