What Could Be The Numbness In The Left Side Of Body?
Hi, sometime on the left side of my body just under my armpit around where my ribs are I get a funny feeling which is hard to explain, it feel like a light feeling or sometimes numb if that sounds correct, I've done checkups and so forth and the doctor always tells me I'm fine. What could this be and why ??

Hi,
If other diagnostic tests resulted negative, then, all your symptoms are neurological in nature.
Further neurological examinations are needed together with head MRI. Depending on the tests results, specific treatment will be prescribed.
Meanwhile, I advise to take:
- multivitamin supplementation (of B complex)
- keep doing regular physical activity
- physio-therapy are also of help.
All the best!
