What Causes Left Sided Numbness And Heat?
Hi I am 29 years old, It s been a two weeks now that sometimes the left side of my body gets numb and uneasy. The first time I felt this was last 10 days ago before the day of my menstruation. I thought maybe it is just because of my monthly period. But at times after my period the left side of my body still gets numb. Sometimes my left foot also feels so hot. please help me thank you

Hi,
Numbness on one side of your body can be due to simple reasons like vitamin B12 deficiency or complex issues like stroke (blockage of blood supply to parts of brain). You need a detailed personal clinical examination. Please do visit an hospital as early as possible.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
