I'm really worried because my mom started taking Martifur, just like her doctor said, but now she's experiencing a pretty bad burning sensation and her legs, along with the rest of her body, feel shaky and weak. Is this something we should be concerned about, or is it a normal side effect?

The severe burning sensation, shaky and weak legs, and body weakness your mother is experiencing while taking Martifur (a urinary tract antiseptic) are not typical side effects

I've been having tingling and pins and needles in both hands along with numbness. Got an NCV test done for both upper limbs and currently taking Tab Gabapin 300 twice daily and Tab Rejunex once daily. Wanted to know if continuing medicines would help or if surgery might be a better option for this condition

conservative tt is advised ,if symptoms are still persisting a neurologist opinion is advised to the patient.
