Hi ..I had a sharp shooting pain in my leg and doctor said pinced nerve 2 weeks ago , I also have a pain bin my back middle near where my bra strap would go and it s sore to touch ,I then started to feel numbness left leg and leftbside of face , went to emergency room and they did reflexes and cat scan but all was normal .. I have still got numbness left leg and shooting pain in left leg , my middle back is still very sore to touch and facial numbness is still there which has been 5 days now for numbness but shooting pain is 2weeks .. Please can you tell me is this all a pinced nerve ? I am becoming very worried as I looked online and it said ms
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. You require detailed evaluation by a neurologist to diagnose the underlying reasons. The diagnosis could be multiple sclerosis, however, MRI of brain and spinal cord would be required to further clarify the diagnosis. Pinched nerve in the back could explain the leg pain and numbness but not the numbness on the face. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
