A member asked:

Have tingling in just right arm and right leg, have previous neck sci, could it just be pinched nerve? had a neck fusion at c4,5 & 6 over 35 years ago.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neurologist: I recommend consulting a neurologist. Spinal cord and nerve root impingements at the neck level usually affect the upper extremity, while brain lesions in the cerebral cortex can affect both arm and leg simultaneously. I feel that you should be evaluated by a neurologist as soon as possible in view of your current symptoms. I'm concerned about a tia or impending stroke or other brain pathology.
