Question 3

4 months having pins pain tingling dizziness  and numbness all over body. now have vibration in my left ankle and burning sensation in lower back. i noticed it gets worse when i turn my head/back down?

Accepted Answer

Sciatica : You may have a condition called sciatica which occurs when the nerve going to your leg is pinched as it comes out of the spine to give the pain down the leg and back. Have your primary care doctor check it out to make sure your leg muscles are not getting weaker because of the nerve problem. This doctor can refer you to the appropriate specialist you need to see. Please get this checked out.

Question 4

i have recently been diagnosed with ms. i have been on gilenya (fingolimod) for 8 months. i have tingling in my legs and my left ankle hurts when i walk too much. it has been like this for 8 months. will it ever go away ?

Accepted Answer

Wax and wane: The difficult part of dealing with MS is that it has variable courses. Some wax and wane quickly and progressively, while others barely notice they are ill. 
To help you, I think we should focus on what makes the nerve pain better for you, whether its a hot bath, or gabapentin. I would suggest going to see a DO regarding naturopathic herbal support as well. It's frustrating-best to act holistly.

Question 5

ive been having light tingling sensations in my left ankle area for the past few days, with a lessened sensitivity to touch. today, my left wrist/hand area feels like its doing the same thing. i am on mirtazapine and ive had beer the past few days?

Accepted Answer

Ankle&amp;Hand symptoms: The fact that this occurs in upper and lower body is concerning and indicates the need for you to see your doctor.  Some possibilities are relatively benign and others more serious.  Your doctor will let you know what is happening and provide treatment.  Peace and good health.

Question 6

how to remove a hard patch of skin on left ankle and causes?

Accepted Answer

Usually trauma: Calluses form at sites of skin trauma and usually due to footwear if on the ankle. Changing shoes or adding a layer of protection/cushion at the site may help.  Frequent moisturizing may help too.

Question 7

what could cause my left ankle to be in pain as well as my heel?

Accepted Answer

Injury: If you have twisted your ankle you may have swelling around the nerve and that nerve runs into the bottom of the foot at the level of the heel.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Sprain/ inflammation: Gout and arthritis can present this way if no hx of trauma. STD is a possibility in your age group.

Question 9

i have a sharp intermittant stinging pain on the outside of my left ankle what could be the cause ?

Accepted Answer

Get a diagnosis...: There are a number of things that can cause pain in the ankles. This is a very nonspecific symptom.  A few possibilities  are fracture, nerve pain, sprain and tendon problems.  I recommend that someone pain in these areas should be seen by orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon for a definitive diagnosis so that appropriate treatment can be started.  You can find one in your area at www.Aofas.Org.

Question 10

DVT: Given the shortness of breath this is either heart failure or a dangerous deep vein thrombosis with potential pulmonary embolism. Either way you need medical attention urgently.
