I'm feeling these hard pulses all over my body, like in my head, hands, and legs, and I'm also dealing with constant shaking and body vibrations. My vitamin B12 is low at 150, but my ECG came back normal. This has been going on for years. My blood pressure is normal, and my pulse rate is about 80, though it goes up with exercise or activity. I know I'm overweight and have a lot of anxiety. Should I be worried about these hard pulses? I tend to overthink and often find myself spiraling after looking things up on the internet. What do you think could be causing this?

However, numbness can be a symptom of a serious condition if it occurs alongside symptoms such as: numbness on one whole side of body, sudden onset, dizziness/giddiness. One can not totally differentiate the cause unless examined by an expert, so it is suggestable to consult a doctor.

How long do damaged nerves take to heal?

Regeneration time depends on how seriously your nerve was injured and the type of injury that you sustained. If your nerve is bruised or traumatized but is not cut, it should recover over 6-12 weeks. A nerve that is cut will grow at 1mm per day, after about a 4 week period of 'rest' following your injury.
