What Causes Numbness In Legs,feet And Pelvic Area?

I ve noticed over the las week that my lower body - including the pelvic area (genitals an buttocks), legs and feet- have been numb. I can walk good, and have a little feeling on the lower body, however, i am worried because it has never happened to me before what could it be? I am 35yrs old, and have regular menstrual periods.

Hello,

In cases like yours is advisable to be evaluated for spinal cord stenosis.

Besides medical examination, an MRI of your lumbar spine is necessary for this purpose. Discuss with your Neurologist for these issues.

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

Take care
