Numbness in the leg after giving birth can be attributed to various factors, including the effects of epidural anesthesia, which can temporarily block sensation in the lower body. Additionally, pressure on nerves during labor, especially from the baby's position or prolonged pushing, may contribute to this sensation. It often resolves on its own as the body recovers and circulation normalizes, but if numbness persists, consulting a healthcare provider is advisable.
yes because one of the nerves on your ankle gets pinched and cuts the blood flow to your body leg.
You can cut off the circulation in your leg if you sit for too long causing your leg to tingle or feel numb. Shaking your leg might be a way to stimulate circulation again.
No. Pain, numbness, or weakness in the leg when taking hormonal birth control is a danger sign. Take off the patch, and go to the emergency room.
no it should not be numb
When I had a local anaesthetic in my leg, it felt numb.
my leg is not numb and cold. however, if your leg is numb and cold, it could be for any number of reasons. lack of circulation could be a cause. if it continues for an extended amount of time, i would recommend seeing a doctor.
no
You should not walk on it, first of all. Most of the time my limbs (arms, legs) become numb when I have cut off circulation to them or pinched a nerve (?) by the way I am sitting or by an activity I am engaged in. If that is the cause, simply find another position so your leg is more relaxed. It should feel better quickly. If this does not solve the problem, I would call a doctor. Wait for it to un-numb then go about your day. ;)
Because you are not getting enough or any circulation.
a nicked nerve. good luck
If your leg is numb, you need medical attention. See a doctor or go to an emergency room.
The numbness and sensation of your leg giving out could be due to various factors, such as nerve compression, a pinched nerve in the lower back, or issues with circulation. Conditions like sciatica or a herniated disc can lead to these symptoms by affecting the nerves that supply the leg. It's also possible that muscle fatigue or weakness contributed to the feeling of your leg giving out. If this persists, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
