Hello,

It may be due to peripheral neuropathy.

It may be due to several causes.

For further assessment you may require MRI neck, nerve conduction studies, vitamin b 12 levels after neurologist consultation.

Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

You may require tablet pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.

Continue physical therapy.

You may require detailed evaluation to rule out nerve compression or vitamin deficiency

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