Question 1

I'm having this issue with numbness on the left side of my cheeks that's been going on for about four months now. We've been to different hospitals, both for eye and dental check-ups, and everything seemed fine there. Then, we visited a general medicine doctor at Apollo, who suggested I take Gabantin every evening and get a Methylcobalamin injection weekly. After a week of that treatment, things felt better, and I didn't have any symptoms for a month. But now, the numbness is back, and it's been bothering me for the last two weeks. Do you think seeing a neurologist would be the right step to take next? I'm just not sure who to turn to at this point. Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question 3

I'm experiencing this weird burning sensation that moves around my body. Sometimes it's in my back, other times in my thighs or breast, under my arms, and even in my shoulders. It doesn't last long, just a few seconds, but sometimes it hurts too. It's really starting to freak me out. Any idea what might be causing this?

Accepted Answer

The burning sensation you're experiencing, occurring at different times and locations, could be related to nerve irritation or inflammation, such as **nerve compression** or **neuropathy**. However, it's important to rule out other conditions like muscle strain or even stress-related issues. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and to address your concerns.
