Continue to monitor: Continue to monitor the symptoms. If the area of numbness expands or is associated with new symptoms (skin discoloration, motor weakness, pain, etc), then see your primary care physician. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003206.htm

NOT MS: Why are you worried about MS? Discuss with your obstetrician, as your localized patch is likely just a transient issue associated with your C-section.
