MS: Ms can present in any number of ways, but it is usually progressive because the disease is destroying nerves. Is the numbness constant? Is it worsening? Neurology or pain specialist to determine if further testing needs to be done.

Nimbness: Back and extremities numbness may be due to many possibilities. It is less likely to be multiple multiple sclerosis. Migraine and bipolar disorder are not likely related to it. Check with your physician for adequate evaluation and proper treatment.
