A member asked:
I had a lp yesterday and now i have very bad leg pain mixed with tingling/numbness. do i need to be seen? what would even be done to treat this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wait: It sounds like a nerve was irritated or hit. These symptoms should resolve in a few days. If they don't, follow up with the doctor who performed the LP. In fact, you should call him/her when you can. Very unlikely to cause any permanent problem. Ok to take any type of pain medicine.
