I have numbness in my right foot and calf for the past 2 days and struggle to move my toes. my dad has ms . do i need to seek medical attention?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Any numbness with weakness in the extremities needs a full examination. Call your regular Dr and make an appointment, if they are not available within a couple of days, go to an urgent care. You may need lab tests, imaging or other tests to determine the cause and treatment. There can be many causes including a nerve impingement, diabetes, peripheral artery disease, fibromyalgia or MS
