I'm having a lot of swelling in left lower leg. no injuries. i consulted with a dr. who said they believed i have p.a.d. i never followed up to confirmed. now im experiencing numbness in my fingertips. are the 2 related? and what can be done for both?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Definitely maybe but hard to say for sure. Numbness in the fingertips can be from many things, including circulatory problems though nerve problems like a herniated disc in your neck, a pinched nerve or neuropathy from diabetes or some other cause is more common. Definitely something worth looking into!
