I feel numbness and cold sensation on the left side of the body including face. Why?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Well, most of your symptoms do look like related to the nerves only as the feeling of tingling and numbness can be related to that. I have gone through your older reports as well (attachment removed to protect patient identity), where there is a mild spasm of the spine. But since it is affecting your hands, and face it probably looks like coming from the neck region this time. You can get an x-ray done as and when you get time but will guide you with the following lifestyle changes as well. You can continue Pregabalin for 15 days to 30 days at least. If you feel the relief is not adequate, you can increase the dose to twice daily for seven days. Include vitamin D along with Pregabalin as well to strengthen your bones.

As for the postures:

1. Make sure you are not sitting in front of the laptop for too long with your head bent forward. It should be at a good height so it does not strain your neck too much.

2. Daily walk for 20 minutes along with spine and neck strengthening exercises for 10 minutes.

3. You can use local sprays and gels over the neck for some relief.

I hope this helps.
