What Causes Feeling Of Internal Numbness In Abdomen?

The right mid part of my abdomen feels like it has fallen asleep, but minus the pins and needles . Almost numb like........and it has been this way consistantly for nearly one week. My skin is not numb to the touch...it feels internal.... There is no pain, just consistant...internal numbness localized to an rea about the size of an orange I would say...... I am 25, 4 10 and weigh approx 187, and I am a smoker of 7 years. Any suggestions or guesses on what might be wrong? I am generally a pretty healthy person as far as not getting colds and such, have a few food allergies but nothing severe.

Hi,

Numbness or hypersensitivity may be due to anxiety neurosis or panic attacks or peripheral neuropathy or radiculopathy, etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week.

Use tablet Pregabalin once daily for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your neurophysician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

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