A member asked:
Why does my right leg feel numb or drowse? because of my postural kyphosis or why? i have some blue small veins on my right leg only.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Kyphosis usually does not cause numbness in leg unless it is extremely severe more often some. Irritation of the sciatic nerve or disc problem can lead to numbness in the leg generally it improves in time 4-6 weeks but if you have these symptoms for long better to get checked by your doctor who can examine you and order necessary tests to make a correct diagnosis good luck.
